What makes the Sika Design Exterior Collection great for your outdoor space?The Exterior Collection by Sika-Design is made with weatherproof, powder-coated aluminium - Alu-Rattan and ArtFibre®. Alu-Rattan is a type of powder-coated aluminium that imitates rattan and its unique shaping capabilities, and the powder coating enables it to withstand high temperatures and hard wear while the ArtFibre® materials are artificial fibres made of maintenance-free polyethene that is UV and temperature resistant, as well as has a robust structure that can maintain its shape for many years. Each furniture piece in the Exterior Collection is handpainted to look just like natural rattan so you never have to compromise on style nor durability.In addition to the aluminium frame, the chair can also be fitted with Quick Dry Foams in the seat, which comes in many varieties of durable fabric variants hand-sewn in Denmark. The foam cushions are made to order and specially designed as outdoor cushions that can drain water and maximize air circulation into a faster drying process. Lastly, the Italian Tempotest cushion fabrics are treated with a special type of finish. During the treatment process, the finish is deposited not only on the surface of the fabric but envelopes each individual fibre. This forms an impenetrable barrier without compromising the fabric's breathability. The HI-Clean finishing makes Tempotest fabrics water and oil-repellent. It is also rot-proof and immune to the formation of mold and fungus.Maintenance is a breeze with Sika Design's exterior furniture, which does not require any upkeep. It's suitable for year-round outdoor use and is simple to clean. Use a mixture of mild soap and water for regular cleaning.ADDITIONAL INFORMATIONMeasurements & weight displayed do not include any selected add-onProduct TypeOutdoor Center Module SofaFrame ColourNaturalMaterialAlu-Rattan & ArtFibreDimensionH72cm x W85cm x D77cmSeat Height43cmWeight5.3kgLead Time Approximately 4-6 weeks

Within this book the viewpoints of children with special educational needs are placed centre-stage; their attitudes and opinions are given a major voice in the text. The authors argue that student views are an untapped potential which can aid educational provision as well as teacher understanding. They point out that massive amounts of assessment, case conferencing and liaison between adults may go on in the child's interests but the actual interests and views of the young learner are not usually ascertained; in Experiencing Special Education they seek to redress the balance. An international sample of students give us their views on teachers, lessons, parents and schools, changing schools, feeling different, friends and enemies, fun and games, getting into trouble, and being assessed. This kind of consultation is likely to lead to greater self-awareness, increased motivation and improved relationships; and is a necessary part of matching provision to individual needs. Finally, as well as offering a voice to children with special needs, Barrie Wade and Maggie Moore also offer guidelines (arising out of this work) to policy-makers.
Dozens of books on acting exist, but none of them are quite like this. On Acting and Life provides both insightful acting advice and the memoir of an acclaimed actor of both stage and screen. Modelled after Stephen King's bestseller, On Writing, the book is divided into two parts. Part one takes readers on a seventy-year journey that begins with William B. Davis, at age twelve, riding his bicycle through the streets of Toronto to his first acting classes, and eventually leads to him starring in the long-running television series, The X-Files. From a summer theatre in Ontario to the National Theatre of Great Britain to the National Theatre School of Canada to the William Davis Centre for Actors' Study in Vancouver, few have achieved such a colourful journey. Along the way, Davis met all sorts of familiar faces, including Donald Sutherland, Brian Cox, Albert Finney, Laurence Olivier, Maggie Smith, David Duchovny, and Gillian Anderson, among others. Although there is a lot about acting in part one, the heart of the book for an aspiring or working actor is in part two. What has Davis learned in seventy years of working both in the theatre and in film and television? A lot, as you will see. Davis' grasp of the art of acting is vast and practical. And in some ways, original. In his final chapter, Davis explores the underlying philosophy of acting and actor training and argues for bringing the work in to the twenty-first century.
