Designed for public spaces, this modern outdoor bench Revit family features a broad, backless slatted timber seat mounted above a recessed base. The bench exhibits a robust, rectilinear profile characterised by horizontal longitudinal timber boards across a wide seating platform. Warm natural-wood tones accentuate the thick solid-volume form, giving the bench a grounded, monolithic presence suitable for heavy public use. The seat rests upon a low-profile, recessed plinth base that creates a subtle shadow line along the pavement edge, imparting a floating appearance to the heavy wooden block. Its clean rectilinear geometry lacks backrests or armrests, allowing multi-directional sitting along open public pedestrian corridors and landscaped grounds.
The download is a 420 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.
As a native Revit family component, the bench inserts directly onto topography, site pads, or horizontal hardscape surfaces in landscape and architectural models. Designers can schedule the fixture as site furniture or generic casework, align instances along paths using array commands, and modify visibility settings across documentation views. Materials for the slatted timber surface and plinth can be assigned through standard Revit material parameters.
Engineered for urban landscapes, this street furniture asset suits civic plazas, university campuses, corporate courtyards, commercial promenades, and public park developments. It pairs cleanly with outdoor bollard lighting, concrete planters, integrated trash receptacles, and hardscape paving systems during concept design and detailed external works documentation. Planners and landscape architects searching for modern park bench families, commercial street seating, or public plaza timber benches can deploy this element to quickly populate realistic pedestrian environments.
