White geometric modular furniture from fibreglass mouldings and linings specialist, Sui Generis has completed a prestigious roof-top garden at Two Pancras Square in London’s King’s Cross.
Offering views of the iconic Gherkin and St Paul’s Cathedral, the garden was designed by the new building’s architects Allies and Morrison to provide its business occupants with additional space for recreational use and a wide range of corporate functions.
With a variety of plants, a manicured lawn and extensive decking, the garden now also features a selection of cubed and curved seating from the Sui Generis GeoMet range – a collection of durable, low maintenance furniture designed for mix and match use, or as standalone single units.
Commenting on the choice of furniture, Andrew McPherson, Customer Services Manager for King’s Cross Estate Services, who manages Two Pancras Square on behalf of developer Argent, said: “Our client [Argent] gave us details of the GeoMet range because they wanted simple yet visually appealing and comfortable seating that would complement the high-end design of the rest of the building."
“Due to health and safety considerations, the furniture also needed to be weighted yet easy to move around and reconfigure to offer flexibility in terms of how the space is used. GeoMet comes in a weighted option and is very easy to move - not only that but it is UV-resistant and highly durable so requires minimal maintenance, making it very cost-effective.
“We now have seven cube seats, which can also be used as occasional tables, and 37 Halo seats, which are gently curved, mirroring the dome of St Paul’s Cathedral in the distance.”
Designed for commercial and residential use, either indoors or outside; the GeoMet range offers an alternative to traditional timber, aluminium, PVE and plastic furniture.
Available in a wide range of colours and environmentally friendly, GeoMet is also exceptionally durable, weatherproof and vandal resistant, so requires minimal maintenance whilst offering maximum visual impact.
