Granville Bench by PWL By mixing native materials (the wood) with urban flair (the metal), PWL Partnership’s Derek Lee led the in-house design of new street furniture for Granville Street in downtown Vancouver. The benches’ raised arm rests provide resistance from skateboarders, but also a provide a variety of gathering options. All-metal chairs in the same form as the bench provide smaller options that can tuck in where the benches might not fit. Photo 4 of 8 in Great Designs from Vancouver by Erika Heet
