Two sibling products created in collaboration between Landscape Forms and London-based design studio Industrial Facility, Plains & Pods™ embrace the potential of non-prescriptive design to elevate, humanize and personalize public outdoor space. Designed to either work independently or together in concert, Plains & Pods are united around the concept of layering—both in the physical sense and in the experiential sense—to create well-rounded, multi-dimensional settings that inspire design creativity and prioritize the freedom and expression of their users. Rectilinear, bold and architectural, Plains are large-format beams and platforms that vary in height and width to create multifaceted settings that speak to their users’ individuality. The curvilinear counterpart to Plains, Pods seats and planters are designed to be grouped together in tiered clusters of respite space and attractive greenery. Together, combined compositions of Plains & Pods go deeper into determining the social ambiance of space, creating many different nodes for many different types of social interaction.
