The uniqueness of this concrete piece of street furniture lies in its contradictions. It seems light and delicate despite its material. It looks somehow natural but also deeply urban. It appears to be a piece of art yet its shape can easily be the part of everyday life. All the contradictions might stem from its creation, which was in a way a traditional, however also an extremely modern process.

VPI CONCRETE designs and produces concrete furniture for public spaces. The company was founded by architects to invent a new integrity in design and technology of concrete products and their function in public spaces. Their developments target to radically widen the characteristics and possibilities of concrete in product design. Continuous experimenting allows VPI to create unbelievably smooth surfaces and formerly unimaginable structures. In-house developed concrete mixtures provide endless opportunities to design their products and to create shapes of unlimited variety.
