Every day we encounter springs, even though we may not realise it immediately. These springy mechanisms and wire forms<\/a> are used in everyday objects (and some more unusual objects) and have you surrounded more than you may think. In fact, there\u2019s probably a spring in your sight right now!<\/p>\n

From the watch you wear to the bike you cycle and\u00a0the car you drive<\/a>, even down to the pen you use; springs are everywhere, and we rely on them to power ordinary and extraordinary items.<\/p>\n

As bespoke spring manufacturers<\/a>, we have had the opportunity to work on countless exciting projects that have allowed us to see springs and wire forms in some commonplace and unusual applications \u2013 here are just a few of them.

Art: The Royal Horticultural Society Flower Show<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Springs and wire forms have plenty of practical uses, but that doesn\u2019t mean they can\u2019t be used to create something beautiful. In fact, we have been involved in a number of artistic projects in which we were approached to create something that would become part of the art itself.<\/p>\n

One project took us to the Royal Horticultural Society Flower Show at Chatsworth House when sculptor, Andrew Lee approached us to help him to complete his projects, \u2018Shoal\u2019 and \u2018Flow\u2019. We created helped him to create these installations which gave a modern twist on a traditional event.<\/p>\n
