Street benches commemorate local heroes

ZANO street benches can be seen in Olsztyn!

 

Urban street benches Gravis

In the city of Olsztyn, Poland was established extraordinary investment in the field of modern urban architecture. On three streets were placed ZANO modern street benches with a plagues commemorating patrons of those streets: king Wladyslaw Jagiello, writer Maria Konopnicka and social activists Natalia Żarska. The initiative came from the citizens themselves, as a part of civil budget. Despite that, the project was preceded by a public consultation.

Creating plaques, that will also fit in with modern urban architecture, is a real challenge. ZANO company has raised to the challenge by inserting stylish plagues with short biographical informations about the patrons on the side of the

street benches. Thanks to such solution, it is considered easy to read those notes  – it does not require bending. The commemorationg plagues were made of stainless steel, which will ensure their durability and classy looks. Moreover, each plague also has a QR code, that will link you to the website with even more informations about the patrons.

ZANO street benches: urban furniture on the streets

 

In the project we used an urban bench Grafis 02.437. This particular type of street furniture is ideal for lovers of modern design. Gravis is a wooden outdoor bench with legs, which can be made of three different materials: carbon steel, stainless steel or decorative concrete. Depending on the costumer’s request, seat can be made of exotic wood or local one. Concrete Gravis Benches, along with the steel version, look really beautiful in a variety of different colors, also they can enlive and add modern character to the urban space in which they are located.
