A different color for every table
Governors Island sits just south of Manhattan and draws crowds all summer. For a public event there, we built six swing tables, each in its own color combination of frame, wood finish and cushions.
Set out together against the island's lawns and skyline, the six colors turned the seating into an attraction of its own. Visitors, photographers and people just passing through stopped to sit, swing and take pictures all day.
Built for a crowd
Public events are hard on furniture: sun, rain, constant use and hundreds of people a day. Every table was made to order in our California workshop with weather-resistant Trex composite tops and powder-coated steel frames. They ship flat, go together on site and come apart again for the next event, so they work just as well for a one-day festival as a full season.
Swing tables for parks and public spaces
Public space programmers need seating that looks creative, gets people together and survives whatever the weather does. A colorful outdoor dining table with swings checks all three. We work with event producers, parks departments, public space designers and city planners on everything from a single statement table to a full installation.
