Ikon Gallery has commissioned Plane Structure to design and build a set of tables, chairs and benches for its Slow Boat – a 72 foot narrow boat that is used for art installations, talks and projects.

We’ve been prototyping a few ideas inspired by Birmingham’s canal heritage – we’re thinking of incorporating brass trim and a classic diamond motif into the contemporary-shaped furniture.

This is a lightbox used by Birmingham Royal Ballet as part of a stage-set to  give three different sizes of moon. The three different segments can be closed or open to give the impression of a looming lunar object.

We’re really pleased with how this museum-grade display case has turned out. The white interior is complemented with an oak veneer with red trim for a crisp finish.

The University of Birmingham commissioned us to create these gallery walls in its Listed Aston Webb Rotunda building. We installed Fermacell boards on top of a wooden structure to create a solid, gallery-standard wall that will both serves the needs of the curatorial team at UoB but is also sympathetic to the fabric of the building.

This impressive structure is suspended from the ceiling of the University of Birmingham’s Bramall Music Building. Part of the exhibition Kelp Road, the installation creates the effect of a kelp forest and is accompanied with sea sounds, a collaboration between sound artist Scott Wilson and visual artist Anne Parouty. Plane Structure installed the installation, which forms part of the University of Birmingham Arts & Science Festival.
