The Mission
In the future, we see cities, houses, museums, and many more places blossoming with slightly different yet uniform-looking sustainable outdoor furniture, including benches, trash cans, and much more. These will be built with sustainable and local materials and in an environmentally-focused fashion.
The Challenge
Outdoor furniture in general, and benches most specifically, are currently built with non-sustainable and imported materials and building practices and with very little concern about both the users and the environment where it occurs. This leaves both with unmet needs that can range from being comfortable to having a liveable habitat.
The Solution
As a team, we aim to design outdoor benches that cater to both nature and humans. Through mass customization, we want to create sets of benches that fit their environment to perfection, meeting the needs of all parties, whilst still using sustainable and local materials and building practices.
