Stark Seat

Softwood timber seat that can be used independently or as a coordinated suite of products (with benches, tables and picnic tables also available separately).

The softwood construction makes for an economical alternative to hardwood seating and table ranges, with pressure treatment providing good medium-term durability. The range is characterized by heavy-duty timber sections with bolted connections to give a tough, almost industrial aesthetic.

All timber sections are ‘regularized’ with planed faces and eased edges, with cross-cuts also softened to eliminate sharp edges and reduce the risk of splintering. Softwood can be supplied in a ‘natural’ pressure treated finish which can add a slight green tinge to the pale colouration of the timber, or can be treated with a supplementary saturating oil in a variety of tinted colours.
