The seating for the Silver Spring Gateway reflects the Art Deco style of the Canada Dry building on the site. The chairs and benches reference the Art Deco Period through the form of the furniture and the patterned “upholstery” of the stone surface. Individual chairs are surrounded by a plinth of glass block with lighting from beneath.
