Rough&Ready Loungers

By 18-04-2017

The new Rough&Ready Loungers from Streetlife’s Street Furniture collection have been installed in Memphis, Tennessee (USA). Shelby Farms Park is an impressively large park of 4500 acres in the heart of Shelby County.

Streetlife delivered products for the Heart of the Park section, a vibrant area featuring a large lake, walking and biking trails, pavilions, play areas and an event stage, together attracting over one million visitors per year.

As Streetlife was included in the design process of James Corner Field Operations, it was possible to adapt some of the Streetlife products to a bespoke fit in the Heart of the Park. For example, the seats of the extra-long R&R curve benches are 30 cm deeper than usual. And Streetlife’s R&R 6 benches were ‘upgraded’ to R&R 9 benches with a 90 cm wide double seating.
