Seating
Seating design that shapes public spaces, from modular furniture to urban infrastructure and social gathering.
Seating encompasses the design of functional and social furniture that activates public environments. Beyond conventional chairs and benches, seating design addresses how people gather, rest, and interact within urban and community spaces.
The community explores seating through parametric and modular approaches that adapt to different contexts, investigates how seating can emerge from existing urban logic like street branching patterns, and examines furniture as a tool for social infrastructure and community reconnection.
