Klara

Park Bench

Design Christina Jonsson Lillienau

Klara is an award-winning park bench with an eye-catching design. The armrests, legs and side supports are fixed in cast iron, yet their sweeping curves suggest fluid form. As if drawn boldly in black ink, their sleek shapes seem to bring the strokes of a paint brush to life. Although the bench is strikingly contemporary, the simplicity of its design and the beauty of its contours make it suited to period settings also.

Pine

Nola's pine is of high quality and comes from sustainable forestry. Pine is an environmentally friendly, domestically produced material. Damaged or untreated pine is quite easily attacked by decomposition processes; therefore, it is particularly important to repair damaged surfaces.

Cast iron

Cast iron is iron with a carbon content between approximately 2 and 4 percent with a large proportion of recycled material. Compared to steel, it has a lower melting point and is therefore easier to melt and requires less energy. Thanks to the high carbon content, so-called graphite is formed. This is the main reason why cast iron, unlike steel, does not rust as quickly and thus has a very long life cycle.

Assembly and placement

Freestanding

Freestanding product that is placed directly on the ground.

Surface mount

Can be bolted above ground, to the floor or to a cast-in-place foundation. Bolts not included.

Fully assembled.

Maintenance

Both painted cast-iron and painted pine can be repainted when needed with alkyd oil enamel.

Cast iron

Untreated cast iron eventually rusts, but this does not affect its durability. Products in cast iron that are anti-rust treated and painted black should, however, be touch-up painted and maintained, at regular intervals, if necessary or in case of possible damage, with alkyd paint.
