The terraced dining patio adjoining the Kula Lodge on Maui required special seating criteria: resistance to weather, low maintenance, and permanency. An interlocking modular system consisting of five parts was developed so each bench could be easily assembled on site. The design incorporated a repetitive modulus to provide seating efficiency and comfort to a variety of anatomical types. The molds were constructed of a hybrid composite of polyurethane rubber on the inside bonded to an outside shell of epoxy/fiberglass/carbon fiber.
Design is available for licensing to interested precast manufacturers.
