Award-winning designer Vasil Velchev introduces Lumino, a weather-resistant, anti-vandal single street bench with an artistic twist, designed to illuminate city spaces.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Vasil Velchev's Lumino is a one-of-a-kind single street bench that doubles as a city sculpture, combining art and functionality. Crafted from a single twisted pipe, this bench stands out for its unique design and practical features. Measuring 810mm in height, 420mm in length, and 610mm in width, Lumino is a standout addition to urban landscapes.
The bench's construction from solid surface stone-like material, acrylic shiny plastic, and semi-transparent acrylic material ensures its durability and adaptability to various environments.

Moreover, the inclusion of a solar panel provides an independent power source, enhancing its sustainability and functionality. The seamless, smooth design not only adds to its aesthetic appeal but also makes it weather-resistant, anti-vandal, and easy to clean, meeting the demands of urban settings.
Overcoming challenges in manufacturing and installation, Velchev's innovative approach ensures that Lumino can be produced in parts for easier installation, making it a practical choice for urban planners and designers. The six-month development process reflects Velchev's dedication to creating a unique, functional, and visually striking piece of street furniture.
Velchev's Lumino has garnered international recognition, receiving the prestigious Iron A' Design Award in the Street and City Furniture Design category in 2020. This accolade underscores the practicality, innovation, and professional standards upheld by Lumino, making it a standout addition to urban landscapes worldwide.
