Outdoor furniture from the Linea and Mall ranges by Street Furniture Australia was specified for the brand new campus at St Francis of Assisi College in Renmark, South Australia.
Designed to accommodate students from year 7 and year 8, the new school completed this year will grow with the two year groups until it encompasses classes from year 7 to year 12 in 2026.
Swanbury Penglase provided a holistic design for the campus as the architects and landscape architects for the project.
Landscape architect Lana Greer said the furniture selection was driven by both aesthetic vision and activities the college would like to support outdoors.
“We were pleased to be able to install a variety of furniture selections from Street Furniture Australia across the new campus that are both durable and elegant.
“The furniture is reflective of the campus’ architectural style and facilitates a variety of outdoor learning opportunities through different arrangements and installation methods,” she explained.
The architects have specified the Linea range with its sleek, strong stainless steel frames, and the versatile Mall range featuring durable and low-maintenance Wood Without Worry aluminium woodgrain Bush Cherry battens and powdercoated frames in Textura Monument.
Both Linea and Mall settings can be used for formal learning as well as student recreation activities. The Mall DDA tables feature end-access for wheelchair users.
Plinth-fixed Linea seats sit flush on concrete walls, supporting sandstone forms to enhance the sit-ability of the landscape.
