Category:Collaboration with industry
Partners:
The MobiWOOD project aims to create an urban furniture system with organic shapes, made from technological wood. This initiative presents a disruptive way of redesigning a simple park bench, offering a creative and industrialized solution, made of wood but resistant to the elements.
Features and Benefits
- Design and Materials: The furniture developed will be warm, slim, dynamic and ergonomic. Its main characteristics will include durability, low maintenance needs, low environmental impact and lightness. The technological wood used will provide various applications and uses, allowing the creation of products with dynamic, organic and disruptive shapes thanks to the flexibility and extrusion of the material.
- Production Standards: the project will be defined within the context of an industrialized product, with a high level of standardization in the shape molds. However, this standardization will not limit the design possibilities, offering a balance between mass production and creativity in design.
- Compatibility and Adaptation: the purpose is to determine the possible formats of the furniture so that they are compatible with the manufacturing methods. Furthermore, these formats will be adapted to the final use, ensuring functionality and aesthetics in urban environments.
MobiWOOD proposes a revolution in urban furniture design, combining aesthetics and functionality with a sustainable approach. By taking advantage of the properties of technological wood, the project seeks to offer innovative urban solutions that are durable, ecological and adaptable to various urban needs.
