We were brought on board by the merchant working on the project, tasked with the brief of providing 11 bespoke stainless-steel manhole covers that are near invisible yet still functional.
Within two weeks we successfully designed the covers to include unusual circular lifting points – also known as barrel lifting points. There is skill required in the fitting of these because the individual undertaking the installation must drill and fit the infill into the lifting points. In this case, the infill material used was wood, adding another layer of individuality and aesthetically pleasing design.
The solution we provided helped the client quickly move forward with the project and achieve their vision of having the necessary infrastructure while being almost unnoticeable.
