Urban 'Pop-Up' Bench



 The innovative and practical design developed by ducth designers Carmela Bogman and Rogier Martens,  'pops-up' from the pavement only when needed. Its design allows the space where it is to be multipurpose, as it adapts to the pedestrian's usage.   


The First pop-up installation can be found in the Quarter Lombok in the city of Utrec, Netherlands.
The design, to me, is something worth remembering when designing anything, because everything that man makes should be intended for the benefit of society and should be useful to the users. I think that architecture should also have in mind the adaptability of humans and the user friendly aspect of the structure.
