Blackhawk Middle School – Outdoor Classroom
Doty & Sons has transformed the vacant courtyard at Blackhawk Middle School in Bensenville, IL, into a dynamic outdoor classroom. This revamped space features sustainable seating, native landscaping, and interactive educational zones, thereby enhancing student engagement and promoting hands-on learning in subjects such as science, art, and environmental studies. This initiative improves the school’s aesthetics while enriching the educational experience for students.
Products and Highlights
At Doty & Sons, we specialize in a diverse array of innovative products designed to seamlessly convert any open area into a functional and inspiring educational environment. Our commitment begins with meticulous design and extends through every stage of the casting and finishing processes, ensuring that each bench is not only a piece of furniture but also an enhancement to the outdoor classroom experience.
In this project, we used standard straight benches on an elliptical concrete surface. However, we are fully equipped to meet any challenge and can create benches that match any new or existing contour. Our custom designs allow the benches to seamlessly match any space.
Custom Curved Bench Design
Building a curved bench is a simple 5 step process. Determine the bench length, seat thickness, width and leg style (Leg styles shown below). We can build the bench straight or curved. Utilizing a curved bench, requires either the outside radius or diameter of your space to be provided. After providing these simple selections, we are able to provide a drawing the bench for your review and approval.
This process is simple, affordable, and allows for custom benches to be manufactured without creating a custom form.
