ALL IN SQUARE | Daniela Seminara

ALL-IN-SQUARE is a new design idea by In-tenta & Daniela Seminara, producer URBAN SQUARE.

The microarchitecture can be used as a temporary shop as well as information point. It is composed of two basic elements: a square structure and a perforated metal cover which surface can be customized with different cutting patterns and corporate logos. The metal cover can be used as a tunnel to create a sheltered outdoor space or cover totally the square structure. It depends on the dimensions of the location and use needs.

ALL-IN-SQUARE urban furniture is made up of four modular elements:
- A backless bench made in granite
- A ‘cocoon’ seat made in perforated metal plate to lean on or to stretch in
- A lighting element that creates a soft light
- A bike stand made in metal plate that can be used as a fast temporary parking

ALL-IN-SQUARE external floor covering is made in granite, solid surface (light emitter) and steel.

The trapezoidal-shaped pieces can be combined in multiple ways according to different use needs and open air activities related with leisure, the use of technological devices and social relationships in public spaces. ALL-IN-SQUARE includes a hotspot to provide Internet access. This need to access to Internet everywhere, quickly and comfortably, promotes new designs for public landscape.

The design incorporates technological aspects as well as ecological aspects. Thin photovoltaic solar films are located on the roof of the metal plate of the microarchitecture as well as the 'cocoon' elements to supply energy.
