Synopsis
At its best the contribution urban furniture can make to daily life in a city is hugely enriching. Apart from the many functions it performs urban furniture make streets and public spaces more aesthetically interesting and pleasing.This book shows how this can be achieved and the ways in which innovative designs and their contexts form a synergy. Seating, lighting, communication, sanitation, walls, floors, spaces for play, meeting and relaxation are just a few of the topic areas and landscape elements addressed in this informative and exquisitely illustrated volume., Seating, lighting, communication, sanitation, walls, floors, spaces for play, meeting and relaxation are just a few of the topic areas and landscape elements addressed in this informative and exquisitely illustrated volume., The book introduces various kinds of urban fixtures in public spaces. Some of them are specially designed for certain contexts, while some, which are outstanding for the embedded innovation and creativity, could be applied in different places. Several themes are included here: the evolution of urban seats, from single stools to benches that have become a landscape element; the preservation of water resources and ways of utilization; urban communication through creative fixtures on walls, floors, and in the air; public playgrounds for children; sanitation of a city; the necessity of bicycles and their development; and new green vision of a city.
