Monday - Friday 10-4pm

Twisted Benches was a two week long Summer School run by Designers Attua Aparicio and Oscar Lessing. Students had the opportunity to design and prototype a piece of outdoor public seating. Students explored model making, furniture design to aluminium sand casting techniques, metal tube bending, joinery and working with glass.

This included a one day trip to Glass Designs in Greenwich in South London to see the manufacturing process of how glass is cast and cut.

The final benches were showcased during London Design Festival 2026.

This Summer school is supported by Legal and General and Overbury
