Context

Broxap designed, manufactured and supplied a co-ordinated range of seating, tables and shelters for Ian Macleod Distillers' new corporate headquarters in Broxburn.

The growing independent distiller called for the perfect blend of outdoor infrastructure to reflect its strong local identity.

The £4.5m development features two prominent glass towers representing the traditional ventilation shafts of Scottish whisky distilleries.

The main building delivers 10,000 sq ft of office space for IMD and is the commercial hub for the independent family firm which owns brands including Edinburgh Gin, Glengoyne, Tamdhu and Smokehead.

Project detail

Working for Clark Contracts, Broxap designed, manufactured and installed a suite of furniture including two Litchard picnic units and 16 Litchard benches.

Broxap's teams collaborated with the project leaders to create 8 Litchard seats, as well as tables and short benches, to specific dimensions to enable unique group seating configurations.

A Palisade brise soleil adds another dimension to the breakout space.

Door barriers, complete with tapping bars to meet Scotland’s disability access standards, completed the project.

Outcome

Broxap's Litchard range provides a timeless yet unique aesthetic for the building's outdoor spaces.
