Hopscotch consists of 3 components, the ‘Hop’ bench, ‘Surge’ power station, and ‘Beacon’ light station.
The body of the Hop bench is fully upholstered with plush padding for a comfortable seating experience and features a robust structure designed for high-impact spaces. Full upholstery hugs the bench’s curves and seamlessly aligns with an aluminum base.
Surge is a charging station for personal electronic devices and can also be used as a table or work surface when placed beside other seating. The power station features eight USB ports, four AC receptacles, and two wireless charging spots. All power options can be accessed on either side so users can charge their devices in whichever way is most convenient.
The vertical tapered LED floor lamp was created to softly illuminate public spaces. The light also serves as a directional guidepost, enabling the seating system to be noticed from a distance. Beacon can be placed in a space by itself, or beside other furniture configurations to provide direction or symbolize a meeting point.
The collection is purposefully fabricated to the highest standards of durability, comfort, and safety to satisfy the needs of users and facility operators alike. The multiple configuration options provide flexibility to create customized social stations – which include but are not limited to – temporary waiting areas, short-term work spaces, charging stations, reading zones, coffee corners, and conversational hubs.
