Designed by VAMP Design, the Geelong Crematorium sought to create a more comforting and supportive environment for visitors. Traditionally furnished with long timber benches and thin cushions, the existing seating was considered “hard” and not ideally suited to spaces where people are grieving.
botton+gardiner supplied custom Atomik Modular pods, including a small moon ottoman and lounge units with armrests, upholstered in Baresque fabrics and vinyls. This configuration provides a softer, more inviting seating experience, particularly in the front row where a trial installation has been implemented.
The introduction of Atomik lounges represents a shift towards more thoughtful, human-centered furniture, with the hope that all traditional benches will eventually be replaced with this lounge-style solution.
