Ει βούλει καλώς ακούειν, μάθε καλώς λέγειν, μαθών δε καλώς λέγειν, πειρώ καλώς πράττειν, και ούτω καρπώση το καλώς ακούειν. (Επίκτητος)

(Αν θέλεις να σε επαινούν, μάθε πρώτα να λες καλά λόγια, και αφού μάθεις να λες καλά λόγια, να κάνεις καλές πράξεις, και τότε θα ακούς καλά λόγια για εσένα).

Landscape Forms intros Backdrop

Landscape Forms, a North American designer and manufacturer of high-design site furniture, structure, LED lighting and accessories, has introduced Backdrop, a system of modular panels and accessories. Designed by Landscape Forms in collaboration with KEM Studio, Backdrop offers a new and uniquely versatile way to create welcoming outdoor destinations. It is ideal for campuses, streetscapes, residential communities and retail and hospitality locations.

“Backdrop defines space in a way no one’s ever done before outdoors,” sid Landscape Forms Chief Creative Officer Kirt Martin. “We call it Backdrop because the panel system itself doesn’t necessarily shout for the foreground attention,” he continued. “But the environments it creates and the features it provides reconceptualize outdoor spaces in really beautiful and innovative ways.”

Thanks to Backdrop’s modular design and engineering, the system creates attractive, high-value destinations for privacy, rest, productivity and social connection along the busy routes that people frequent most and in otherwise challenging or underutilized outdoor real estate.

Wall-height and bar-height panels in straight or L-shaped configurations, and two additional heights for glass (small and large), are the adaptable base units of Backdrop, offering virtually endless customizability in layout, functionality and degree of enclosure. The panels are adjoined by posts and connectors that create two-way, three-way or four-way junctions at 90 or 120 degrees. Backdrop’s integrated power garage posts offer convenient charging for mobile devices. Infill panels can be perforated, slatted, glass, planted greenscreen, or louvered in vertical or horizontal orientations to enhance ambiance and visual transparency. Glass panels can be paired with straight louvered panels to provide wind protection and privacy.

Accompanying Backdrop’s panels is a collection of accessories to truly tailor the configuration. Integrated peninsula or in-line tables in standing or dining height create comfortable spaces for a meal, work or conversation. Wood or metal bar tops placed on bar-height panels create casual, two-sided seating. Configurable bike racks, coat racks and shelving units offer convenient storage for personal items, and in-line provide additional seating.
