A Large Square Bench for Plazas and Public Realm Projects
The Broadmarsh Large Square Bench is a contemporary public bench designed to support social use within open public spaces. Its square configuration allows people to sit on multiple sides, encouraging interaction while maintaining clear circulation around the seating.
Typical applications include:
- Town squares and civic plazas
- Pedestrianised urban centres
- Transport hubs and public concourses
- Commercial developments and mixed-use schemes
- Education campuses and institutional landscapes
The scale of the bench makes it particularly effective in locations where seating needs to serve multiple users simultaneously.
Modular Bench Design with High Seating Capacity
As a square bench, this model offers seating on all sides within a single, compact footprint. The layout works well as a central feature in open spaces, providing an obvious and accessible place to sit without fragmenting the surrounding environment.
Design advantages include:
- Multi-sided seating to accommodate groups
- A central form that helps structure open spaces
- Clear access and visibility from all directions
- A layout suitable for both short stops and longer dwell times
This makes the bench a practical choice for high-traffic public areas.
Robust Steel-and-Timber Construction
The bench is built around a strong steel frame, ensuring long-term durability in exposed outdoor settings. The steel structure can be specified to suit a wide range of architectural styles and site palettes.
Available frame finishes include:
- Galvanised steel for corrosion resistance
- Powder-coated steel in standard RAL colours
- Corten steel for a distinctive weathered appearance
The seating elements are manufactured from hardwood timber (Oak), sourced from sustainable supplies and selected for strength, comfort and longevity.
Please note: FSC®-certified timber is currently unavailable for this product.
