STREET FIGHTER
Urban Bench
Inspired by F-117 fighter plane, STREET FIGHTER bench is inserted in the city with a wild combination of metallic planes assembled in a way that the movement of light and shadows give life to the product. The strength and durability of materials applied, make the bench ideal for both indoor and outdoor spaces. Transportation and storage were main aspects at the time of developing the product.
We created a fully assembly bench, with five main parts and four union pieces.
The execution of the project was sustained by the analisis of shapes through 3D modelling, which allows a hi-tech dynamic look that is contrasted with a constructive simplicity. This aspects make this bench reproducible and easily reparable with lo-tech equipment.
Conceptual Map use to develop the project.
Concepts were taken out of a F-117 Fighter Plane.
Easy to mount, assembled only by intersecting metal planes and fixed with bolts.
The packaging was considered as if the product was going to be delivered in a war zone. A military box was used, made out of wood and with stencil graphic applications.
A cardboard 1/10 model was made in order to completely understand the intersection of planes that compound the bench.
Simple shapes cut out of a metal sheet, combined in order to make a high strength urban bench.
