Restructuring project Louvois Park
As part of this restructuring, the development of the Louvois Park in Vélizy-Villacoublay, south-west Paris region, was entrusted to the Urbicus urban planning firm, which chose products from the range of street furniture manufactured by Grijsen and sold exclusively in France by CROSO France. The choice fell on the benches, benches and picnic sets of the PURE range.
Dutch FSC wood
The PURE range comes directly from Dutch FSC classified Douglas fir trunks, preserved by a special bio-sourced impregnation agent. The combination of the wood and the large steel supports, which provide good stability to the whole, gives these sets a chic look.
Playfully combined
Urbicus has played with all the products in the PURE range in a clever way, and the proposed layout draws its originality from the subtle interplay between benches, seats and picnic sets, large and small.
The bench's originality lies in its partial, offset backrest. Some benches are combined with picnic sets. In the case of small picnic sets, the cubic shape of the wooden stools is extremely pure and simple, as is the table top. The large picnic sets combine a bench without backrest and a large table, always in Douglas fir.
The installation and creation of the green spaces was entrusted to the company Eurovia, to the delight of the residents of the Louvois district in Vélizy-Villacoublay.
