Street furniture – those often-overlooked elements like benches, bollards, and bins – play a vital role in shaping the character and functionality of our cities and towns. Here at TRJ Engineering, based in Victoria, we’re passionate about the art and engineering that goes into fabricating high-quality council street furniture. We believe that well-designed and durable street furniture can contribute significantly to creating vibrant, functional, and aesthetically pleasing public spaces.
Beyond Functionality: Crafting Street Furniture with Purpose
While providing seating, waste disposal, and pedestrian safety are core functions of street furniture, TRJ Engineering sees the bigger picture. We understand that these elements are integral to creating a welcoming and inclusive public realm.
Here are some key considerations that guide our approach:
• Durability and Sustainability: Our street furniture is meticulously crafted using robust materials like steel and recycled plastic, ensuring it can withstand harsh weather conditions and constant public use. Furthermore, we prioritise sustainable practices, using recycled materials whenever possible and minimising waste during the fabrication process.
• Accessibility and Inclusivity: We believe that everyone deserves to enjoy public spaces comfortably and safely. Our street furniture designs incorporate accessibility features like armrests on benches, lowered bin openings, and clear pedestrian pathways to ensure inclusivity for people of all abilities.
• Aesthetic Appeal: Our designs go beyond mere functionality. We collaborate with architects and urban planners to create visually appealing street furniture that complements the surrounding environment. This can involve incorporating artistic elements, innovative materials, or unique finishes to enhance the overall streetscape.
• Community Cohesion: Well-designed street furniture can foster a sense of community by providing welcoming spaces for people to gather, relax, and connect. For example, strategically placed benches can encourage conversations, while bike racks promote active lifestyles and green transportation.
