@angusross Resilience Bench invites you not only to rest a while, reflecting on the Gallery and Garden @TheBotanics but to contemplate the balance of nature, the nature of storms, and what it means to be resilient.

At a basic level we transform local hardwoods into treasured furniture but like many we have been more concerned sustainability during the pandemic. There is a new blog post about our sustainability on our website including using local hardwood.

Our new shelving design has been sized to perfectly display a collection of baskets. Made in Scottish ash, the curved arched structure at the back emerges from the uprights. Translucent shelves diffuse the light.
Our new Strata Table has layers of scorched oak suggestive of strata for our geologist client plus a light airy curved under-structure inspired by the Forth Rail Bridge seen through the window.

Please watch this doc from Queens Hospital explain how to relieve respiratory symptoms. For last 2 weeks I've had all symptoms of C19 (tho haven't been tested) & did this on doc husband's advice. I'm fully recovered & technique helped a lot.
