Indoor and Outdoor Concrete Hex-Block Table, 75cm tall

Solid Soul Design was set up in 2001 by brothers Brendan and Kieron McSherry and their goal was simple; to create functional, beautiful and efficient products that improve the life of the user. After borrowing their dads cement mixer as a means of production they set about exploring and experimenting with the fluid shapes that concrete can create and slowly the first edition of the Classic Bench took shape. Every object that leaves their workshop is unique, even two of the same designs will never be completely identical. This is because each piece is made and finished by the hands of our skilled craftsmen. During the summer of 2012, with over a decade of using traditional concrete the Solid Soul Design wanted to change the way they made furniture. They wanted to develop a more socially and environmentally responsible manufacturing process They set about an ambitious R&D project to find a new way of manufacturing their products. This exploration led the brothers to GRC (Glass Reinforced Concrete) as an alternative material. It gives significant environmental and structural benefits when compared to traditional concrete, but still offers the opportunity to create unique and durable products. 1- GRC is 80% lighter 2- GRC uses 50% less cement 3- GRC uses 80% less sand and aggregate 4- Reduced weight means lower transport costs We handcraft all of our products to order in Birkenhead using a unique GRC mix that ensures a a lifetime of use.
