Kiaora Place NSW, Australia (2019)

In the heart of Double Bay’s revitalised village hub, Kiaora Place is a shopping centre serving local residents and connected to Kiaora Lane, a shopping and outdoor dining strip.

A distinctive mix of small scale shops, boutiques, cafes and commercial premises characterise the centre, which has selected Termini Seats with custom arms to provide comfortable waiting areas throughout the mall.

The Termini Seats are specified in banks of three seats, with the low table included, for the centre, with a convenient two-seater slotting into a space at the entrance from the carpark.

Protecting shoppers and diners on Kiaora Lane are Slim Bollards, with the convenience of in-ground removable fixings.

The bollards have a 304 stainless steel finish, and flat heads.

A loving heritage restoration sees this historic building furnished with brand new Termini Seats. Albury Railway Station first opened in 1882, when it was seen as a turning point towards Australian Federation as it was the first large transit stop to be built on the border of Victoria and New South Wales.
