Living Landscapes – Douglas Fir Bench

We are often asked to provide timber for projects that are displayed at Royal Horticultural Society shows, notably Chelsea and Hampton Court Flower Shows.

Tec Evans of Living Landscapes asked us to source a Douglas Fir log to make a bench designed by Rae Wilkinson.

The log needed to be at least 3.7 metres long and have a diameter of 68 cm. Well, with the heritage we have in timber, we have good contacts and found such a log locally to us. We squared the log and cut it to length, to allow Living Landscapes to finish the bench to the design.

The result was simple, but stunning, really showing the beauty of the timber. Douglas Fir was a great choice, naturally durable, easy to work, beautiful and very strong.

Simply a wonderful project to be involved with.
