SIMPLE SUITE

OVERVIEW

Simple Suite is a collection of minimal street furniture distinguished by its modularity, cost effectiveness, lightweight construction, and ease of transportation, assembly, and maintenance.

David Shaw, Director and award-winning designer at Street + Garden, conceived the vision for Simple Suite. Ray helped refine the concept as well as create design and manufacturing documentation.

“Simple Suite expands functionality through modular design, production efficiencies and longevity.”

  • Manufacturing Efficiencies, Durability, Maintenance, Repair, Domestic and International Shipping.

    • Longevity was a paramount design principle for this project, achieved through minimalism, lightweight, durable materials, and modularity for simplified repair or replacement.

    • Shipping and assembly considerations were carefully integrated into the product's form and function, catering to both domestic and international clients. This involved flat-packable, modular components for cost-effective shipping and easily reversible elements for intuitive assembly.

    • Increased production efficiency was achieved by removing the reliance of welding for strength and leaning into laser cutting and folding only. Additionally, the design leveraged existing aluminum extrusions and employed interchangeable, shared components across all product types, streamlining manufacturing, assembly, and maintenance.

  • Modular and Interchangeable Parts: Standardisation of components across the Simple Suite system means interchangeable parts, effortless repairs, replacements, and future product upgrades.

    Flat Packable: Each product's modular design allows for nested packing, significantly reducing shipping volume and associated costs.

    Longevity and Sustainable: All components are crafted from corrosion-resistant recycled aluminum, promoting long-term product life and environmental responsibility.

    Minimalistic: The deliberate minimalistic aesthetic caters to a broad user base while ensuring the product's enduring relevance and visual appeal.
