The shape of Milan's traditional urban benchs is a symbol of the city I wanted to save. In order to preserve the value of this simple shape I focused my creative intervention investigating the constructive aspects rather than the typological ones, using a mix of contemporary and traditional materials.
The structure is based on two valves aluminium diecast legs and wooden staves.
