Product code: ESC-KM0
A compact concrete bench that can carry route or place information.
Km0 offers passers-by a place to rest and also serves as a sign: routes, nature trails, sites of historical interest or distances can be shown on it. Its compact two-seat size keeps it from becoming an obstacle, and its rounded edges are pleasant to the touch. The bench becomes a local landmark that interacts directly with pedestrians.
Award: first prize in the “Asiento4Sol” competition (COAM and Escofet) for new benches in Madrid's Puerta del Sol.
