URBAN FURNITURE

(1999)

This urban furniture is based on a simple concept: to minimize the number of support elements which have to be anchored to a sidewalk. This support element, in essence a column, is based on the design for the Saturno Lighting System. Onto this column all elements are attached, weather protecting canopies, space defining transparent membranes, backlit display units, signs, seats, wastebaskets, etc. Everything attached to the column is raised from the floor to aid cleaning and to avoid breakage. Each of the units can be decorated to identify the City quarters where placed; metal insignia or glass colored elements, requiring no maintenance, serve to establish the identity of the neighborhood where located.
