SteelbenchTeak (hardwood)

The conceptThe Hive in the Cli� is mainly known for its land-slides over the years, therefore reducing the number of visitors. I intend to take a whole new di-mension with weathering steel and Teak to capture the sculptural and gentle qualities. In doing so local residents and visitors alike will be encouraged to explore this environment and experience wildlife.

Design & Materials by Esther Maganga

The DesignThe steel bench is designed to be visually appealing and at the same time provide visitors with a place to sit. It is made from two high arc-shaped weathering steel joined together at the back and supported at the base with concrete. The Teak bench �ts in place simply with two rods a few distances apart that are connect-ed to the steel.
