Here's some more from the architects:


STAIR

A public bench as a reference to urban conditions. We propose Stair, a bench with multiple seating levels, allowing people to sit in a way that is less prescribed, more flexible and more social. Constructed with triangular prisms, that are connected in such way, they form an infinite variety of stair-shaped seating platforms. Please, take a seat

Materials used: Plywood prototype
