The Nu bench, designed in 1991 by Jordi Henrich and Olga Tarrasó, has been installed at Manukau Memorial Gardens. A benchmark in modern urban design, it is defined by its robust character and understated, timeless expression.

Marina Palamós is undergoing a profound and ambitious transformation, aimed at considerably enriching the port’s coastal heritage and the quality of its landscape. A project that is designed to improve livability, with spaces that are more shaded, comfortable and wrapped in green. urbidermis is diving into the project, providing a holistic perspective that addresses lighting, furniture, microarchitecture and vegetation.

Hobsonville Point Park in Auckland, New Zealand, is a thoughtfully designed public space that blends contemporary urban planning with a natural landscape setting. Within this context, the Trapecio benches, composed of two large trapezoidal wooden pieces, provide generous seating surfaces. Their bold geometry not only enhances the visual appeal of the space but also offers versatile seating options, allowing people to sit informally on both the seat and the backrest.

Urbidermis has carefully selected its urban elements—both furniture and lighting—for their ability to provide comfort and foster social interaction. The 108 bench stands out for its simplicity and robustness, blending seamlessly with surrounding vegetation through its rhomboidal shapes. In contrast, Trapecio is a large bench designed for social gatherings, its generous and elegant geometry transforming the park into a vibrant space for urban leisure. As for lighting, Arne functions as a powerful and versatile urban floodlight, offering functional illumination adapted to the environment. Meanwhile, Skyline—with its essential lines and subtle use of light and color—gently defines and structures the pathways of the Thames Barrier Park, creating a welcoming and close urban presence.
