About this product

Splash Bench

Both share the same generous footprint (approx. 1960 × 1745 × H 400 mm), creating a bold focal point for contemporary public spaces.

Designed by Massimo Tasca, SPLASH brings sculptural impact and everyday practicality to plazas, promenades, campuses and transport interchanges. The HPC version is a single cast, free‑standing element engineered for heavy public use and low maintenance; typical dimensions are 1960 mm (L) × 1745 mm (D) × 400 mm (H) with a weight of ~990 kg, offering inherent stability without fixings in most scenarios. The organic, flowing geometry reads as a landscape gesture while comfortably accommodating multiple users. For sites prioritising colour expression, rapid handling or deck‑level installations, SPLASH VR replicates the form in fibreglass (approx. 5 mm thick) with threaded base inserts to accept feet or rods. It’s epoxy‑primed and polyurethane‑finished to a RAL, with the same nominal size ( 1960 × 1745 × 400 mm ) but a dramatically reduced weight ( ~42 kg ) for easier logistics and repositioning. Across both versions, the design language supports placemaking, wayfinding and photo‑worthy moments, aligning with specification goals for distinctive, durable street furniture in the UK public realm.

FAQ

Questions about the Splash Bench

What are the main differences between SPLASH (HPC) and SPLASH VR (fibreglass)?

SPLASH is cast in high‑performance concrete for ultimate robustness and mass (~990 kg), ideal for heavy‑use public realm; SPLASH VR uses 5 mm fibreglass with epoxy primer and polyurethane finish (~42 kg), enabling colour flexibility and easier handling. Both share the organic form and 1960 × 1745 × 400 mm size.

How is each version installed?

The HPC unit is typically free‑standing due to weight; SPLASH VR includes threaded bushings for feet or rods and can be fixed to a prepared substrate as required by the method statement.

What finishes and colours are available?

HPC is offered in concrete finishes (e.g., Velluto smooth), while SPLASH VR is epoxy‑primed and polyurethane‑coated in a RAL colour selected for the scheme.

What are the key dimensions and seating height?

Nominal plan dimensions are 1960 × 1745 mm with a 400 mm seating height, suitable for informal perching and resting.

Where is SPLASH best used?

Its sculptural presence suits plazas, waterfronts, retail streets and campus quads; the HPC version excels in high‑load, low‑maintenance contexts, while SPLASH VR supports colour‑led or weight‑constrained applications.
