Parklet 7 - Extra Large with Planters & Half Seating

Expansive Parklet for Dynamic Street Activity

The Parklet 7 – Extra Large with Planters & Half Seating is designed as an outdoor dining parklet and social facility that activates underutilised urban space. By reallocating verge or kerbside area for people's use, it creates a compelling public amenity suitable for commercial districts, community hubs and high-footfall zones.

Typical application environments include:

• Retail streets and pedestrian corridors
  
• Transit plazas and multi-modal transport interchanges
  
• Institutional campuses and educational precincts
  
• Mixed-use developments and garden squares
  
• Temporary activation zones for events and festivals

This parklet is particularly effective where extended dwell time and community gathering are priorities.

Planters as Functional Green Framework

This parklet with planters incorporates vegetation in a way that organises space and enhances user experience. The planters provide subtle structure, creating welcoming edges that define seating areas and support biodiversity within hardscape environments.

Advantages of integrated planting include:

• Natural visual buffers around seating clusters
  
• Improved microclimate comfort and shading potential
  
• Habitat value for pollinators and urban wildlife
  
• Enhanced streetscape character and softened hard surfaces

The planters help the parklet feel less like street infrastructure and more like an inviting social space.

Thoughtful Seating Designed for Comfort and Use

Parklet 7 offers an intermediate approach to seating, with substantial benches that encourage both short stops and longer stays without compromising pedestrian flow. The parklet seating is arranged to support a range of activities, from casual rest and people-watching to grouping for meals or coffee.

Seating benefits include:

• Half seating layout that balances space and circulation
  
• Bench heights and sightlines suited to diverse users
  
• Clear sightlines to surrounding activity zones
  
• Coordination with adjacent retail or hospitality spill-out

This configuration supports vibrant street life and encourages spontaneous engagement.

Modular Parklet System with Installation Flexibility

Part of Broxap’s adaptable modular parklet system, Parklet 7 can be deployed as a standalone unit or combined with other modules to scale civic space interventions. Its modular nature supports both temporary pilots and permanent streetscape upgrades.

Modularity advantages include:

• Repeatable components for scalable design
  
• Options for future reconfiguration or relocation
  
• Compatibility with cycle parking, planters and site furniture
  
• Ease of integration into broader public realm strategies

This makes the parklet an appealing choice for local authorities and designers who value flexibility without sacrificing quality.

Robust Materials for Long-Term Outdoor Exposure

Constructed with durability in mind, the parklet integrates a galvanised or powder-coated steel frame with FSC®-certified timber seating surfaces. These materials are selected to ensure resilience to heavy use and changing weather conditions, while maintaining a refined finish that complements adjacent architecture.

Key construction features:

• Galvanised or powder-coated steel substructure for strength
  FSC®-certified timber seating and edging for aesthetic warmth
  Fixings and finishes specified for low maintenance
  Components engineered for long service life in public settings

This material selection ensures the parklet can perform reliably across seasons and uses.
