As part of Dezeen's Designed in Hackney series earlier this year, we featured two designs by Morrison, whose studio is located in the borough – the Crate series of pine storage units and the glass-topped Side Table, originally produced by SCP in 1986.

Here's some more information from the designers:
Park Life by Jasper Morrison and Kettal
"This is my first outdoor collection and it has taken some time to get here: about four and a half years! It probably took that long because we needed to discover the right codes for Outdoor Furniture, which is a category apart from other types of furniture. It has been an interesting process and we have been through many prototypes to get here but I think the result justifies the effort.

"Park Life is a complete family of furniture for outdoors, whose clean cut profile is adaptable to a wide range of different situations. Lightweight yet extremely durable, it's easily stacked for transport or winter storage and its technical sophistication and careful consideration of ergonomics besides a lot of care over how it looks are all intended to ensure a long life, both structurally and visually."
