Designer . Larry Synder
For more than 50 years, Larry Snyder was the driving force behind Canterbury Designs, excelling in both design and manufacturing. With an unwavering commitment to detail and innovation, he forged enduring partnerships with prominent outdoor attractions and leading landscape architects.
Success, to Larry, was measured by the returning customers who appreciated the enduring quality of his products, leaving a pleasing signature on community parks and urban streetscapes. These shared values made QCP's acquisition of Canterbury Designs' line of metal and wood products a natural fit.
His journey began in 1962 when he received a commission for an ornamental cast-iron clock. Impressed by the beauty of Larry’s work, designers and developers sought his talent for crafting site furniture in the ‘70s and ‘80s, initially for southern California's emerging shopping malls. He proceeded to develop a product line featuring classic designs while incorporating ongoing refinement with modern elements.
Larry, strategic in his approach, attracted numerous customers but deliberately expanded products and partnerships slowly to ensure high-quality designs. Earning a reputation for well-fabricated, long-lasting site furniture made from superior materials, we were proud to offer his designs.
