Mascot Park NSW, Australia (2013)

As part of an upgrade to Mascot Park in Sydney, a number of Mall Sun Lounges were installed in order to encourage more people to use the park during the working week. The park is well located for nearby offices and businesses. The design is a re-interpretation of a typical pool-side sun lounge, inspired by a flower or lily leaning forward. It is both sculptural and comfortable to use and a unique addition to this urban park.
