Two-Seater

Two-Seater is a folding bench armature that was engineered and fabricated by Interloop Architecture for Tending,(Blue). This bench is a critical element to experiencing the Skyspace artwork by James Turrell. Texas Accessibility Standards (TAS) requires that the bench accommodate wheelchair access for two individuals seated side by side. Instead of creating a void for these seats, we developed a retractable armature that would support the required portion of the bench, (over four-hundred pounds of stone cladding), enabling it to fold into the wall. Actuators allow an individual to operate the bench with very little effort using a concealed handle to slide the bench into position or to fold it back into the wall.

Polara (7)

Interloop Architecture was commissioned to design and fabricate seven pieces of stainless steel and wood furniture for a private residence in Richardson, Texas. The Polara (7) pieces are used in a master bedroom that includes an eight foot by eight foot cantelievered glass sunroom (Plug-On). The pieces include two wall-mounted night-stands, a footlocker, a rolling upright credenza, a head-board, a picture rail, and wall-mounted lcd stand with drawer and cabinet.
