RPI’s School of Architecture was

approached by the local city of Troy and

asked to assist with the revitalization of

the recently renovated waterfront property.

We were tasked with designing a range of

creative furniture pieces which could be

used to attract the local residents to utilize

the property. Each student worked with a

partner to research, design and prototype a

style of urban furniture which ranged from

benches and tables to playground sets.

Page 23: William McGeever Architecture Portfolio

The inspiration for the project came

from Toyo Ito’s public bench Naguisa

and the concept of expandable

form. Allowing for more than just

two connection points permits

expansion on multiple axis. As this

project was to be used by the general

public it needed to be designed for

single users as well as groups;.

This dictated the use of form to

generate various social interaction

depending on the arrangement of

the units. Depending on the social

intention of the bench section a

specifi c profi le was used to create

variation in duration of interaction.

As seen from the arrangements of

3, 4, or 5 units there are numerous

social interaction that can be achieve.

The center lines fl ow through each

unit and identify the expansion points.

Once arranged the directionality of

the wood slats as well as the center

lines seamlessly fl ow between

the units appearing to be a single

unit. The fi nal product is to be

composed of dense hardwood that

is naturally found in the northeast.
