Co-created by Ryan Wakat and Ellen Patten, this bench was created by combining two uncommon furniture materials: an old bike rack and industrial firehose. To combine both materials, serious consideration was taken before any major cuts, grinds or welds were made. The bike rack, while heavy and industrial, proved to be a challenging piece to work with. However, once it was decided how the fire hose was to be utilized for the sitting area, it was a matter of just piecing it together.
