Radio Flyer Custom Banquettes
Jamie Stern manufactured a series of wholly custom banquettes for Radio Flyer’s 65,000 square foot corporate headquarters located in Chicago’s West Side. Established in 1917, Radio Flyer has called the Windy City home for over a century where they produce their iconic red toy wagon along with a range of tricycles, bicycles and scooters.
This modern office space was designed by Gensler Chicago who specified five U-shaped banquettes with precise vertical channeling for the company’s expansive break room. Five different colorways of the same fabric were selected to distinguish each unit while maintaining a consistent overall look. The pieces were then separated into two groupings (of two and three banquettes) and were connected by bespoke wood paneling to finalize a truly original configuration.
