Flo is a sculpted bench whose graceful curves make it eye-catching and comfortable to sit on. The bench is designed with contemporary street seating needs in mind. These include resisting criminal and anti-social behaviour:
• Deters rough sleeping – the ridged top and curved surfaces make it difficult to lie on
• Deters drug dealing – the bench has no cracks, slots or gaps in which to hide such materials
• Deters bag theft - the recess along each side of the bench allows people to store bags behind their legs
• Reduces littering - the bench has no flat surfaces, cracks, slots or gaps
• Self-cleaning - its shape allows litter, dirt and water to flow off
• Easy to relocate (for example removing it away from problem areas) - as it sits on the footway and is not bolted to a purpose built foundation.
The bench is made from exposed aggregate concrete and comes in a variety of available finishes including limestone and several granite effects. Dimensions Metric length 2700mm | width 900mm | height 550mm Imperial length 8’ 10½” | width 2’ 11½” | height 1’ 9½”
