Smart Public Furniture

MVM Smart Public Furniture - cool & sustainable

Contributing with our design & build to the campaign of MVM (Magyar Villamos Művek Zrt.): in their “Smart School” initiative Hungarian public schools were able to win 1 of the 4 pieces of smart public furniture we have designed and built for the company. City Snake - as we like to call it - is a 7,5-meter-long outdoor smart bench with integrated solar panels that enable students to charge their phones through the built-in USB outlets. Fluid Cube, the 9 m³ cube structure has the same technical attributes, and can serve as a safe place during rain thanks to its roofing.
