Street furniture is the secret star of urban outdoor design. Though rarely noticed at first glance, it significantly contributes to the urban experience. Benches, fountains, street lamps, rubbish bins as well as public toilets are items that recur in various urban spaces.Just like outstanding monuments and landmarks, they determine the identity of a square, street or town. This volume introduces 100 exceptional examples of contemporary street furniture, presenting both items that are one-of-a-kind as well as objects that are part of a product series.
