Furnitubes provided their RailRoad Loop products for The Donkey Sanctuary in Sidmouth.
The Donkey Sanctuary was founded nearly 50 years ago and has become globally renowned for its work, now having over 6,000 donkeys in its care worldwide. At the Sidmouth site alone over 500 donkeys are currently accommodated.
The site has recently seen significant redevelopment, including a new visitor centre, a 200-seat restaurant and a gift shop, all designed to enhance the visitor experience and maintain good visitor numbers and the potential revenue streams this brings.
New buildings are bold but also sensitively designed in keeping with this rural setting in the Devon countryside, using predominantly locally sourced traditional materials.
Furnitubes was delighted that their RailRoad Loop products were chosen for the external seating adjacent to the new visitor centre.
Two long seats were supplied – one comprising 2 segments and the other 3, and together providing around 7 linear metres of seating – both with backrests and curved in plan to match the new walling to the rear of each seat.
Steelwork is in a galvanised finish only, which perfectly complements this agricultural setting and the iroko hardwood timber slats have been left uncoated to naturally weather and over time to visually blend with the other building materials.
