3. 3 Reading Park Sit + Store Unit The initial research phase included Internet research to see examples of creative work of Sit+Store furnitures, research on seating furnitures, research on ergonomics (Metric Handbook) and doing some sketches for the design ideas. The first 2 examples was offering clear store areas while the last 2 examples was more appropriate for long time seating. Finally, I decided to develop someting completely different than the examples I saw; a furniture that has a clear store area while offering a comfortable seat for long times.

4. 4 Reading Park Sit + Store Unit My inspiration for this project is park benches. I like sitting or reading on bench so much because it’s comfortable, invite people to sit and read. Bench is also suitable for 2-3 people to sit together and socialize. INSPIRATION PARK BENCHES

5. 5 Reading Park Sit + Store Unit I decided to create a bookshelf that looks like a bench, encourage people to sit and read, comfortable and suitable to sit long hours. I tried to design a simple, creative and comfortable sit+store unit. It’s composed from a bench unit and shelves and it’s look like a park bench when you look from front. When it’s fully outside, the bench can offer a comfortable sitting area with horizontal shelves above. The bench unit is moveable, it saves from space when out of use. INITIAL DESIGN DESIGN INTENT
