Cumnock Bus Station

New stainless steel contemporary wall mounted benches for this modern station.

Earlier this year Benchmark Design where contacted by Clarks Contractors to deign and manufacture a number of curved stainless steel benches for the new Cumnock Bus Station.

East Ayrshire Council have completely renewed the old site with an entire new station and surrounding landscape. The impressive station design by Wylie Shanks Architects provided a practical yet aesthetically interesting building. To add some continuity to the externals we where asked to help create some equally interesting street furniture.

The proposed landscape plans included sweeping concrete plinths with benches mounted on top that matched the same radius. Our standard curved CL010 seat design seemed to fit in with the Architects overall concept and after some discussion a few modifications to the design were made to give a more contemporary look. Within a couple of hours of the initial enquiry 3d renders had been produced and submitted to the client for approval.

This yet to be titled new seat comprises of 316 stainless steel tubes that can be curved to any radius either as free standing units or as in this case wall mounted. Armrests can be added at any point that allows for multiple seating options.

As with everything we do all of our products can be modified to suit individual projects, better still we can produce one off deigns without the “bespoke” price tag.
