CANTILEVERED BENCH

Sleek + architectural, yet comfortable seating for meaningful places in the landscape

STEEL CHASSIS

Our cantilevered bench’s strength is built upon a custom welded chassis that supports the hardwood seating treads.  Weight is transferred into the ground, where the steel legs are set into concrete.

EXOTIC HARDWOOD

The seating treads of the cantilevered bench are usually composed of exotic hardwoods, like garapa or ipe.  Ecotopes has prepared instructions for caring for these surface materials here.

DESIGN SUPPORT

Without front legs, there’s no obvious clue about how the bench will hold the weight of visitors, but it’s well supported.  The cantilevered bench legs can extend into the ground beyond the edge of a patio or terrace, so that the activity surface is both visually uncluttered + unobstructed.
