This project combines a planter and bench into a single urban artifact, reinterpreting the ecological and social role of trees in Barcelona’s infrastructure-constrained plazas where conventional planting is impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ENG<\/strong>
Yggdrasil is a collection of urban furniture that reimagines the city through integrated greenery, sustainable material innovation, and expressive use of colour, texture, and ornament. It shifts public space from purely functional objects toward environments that support ecology, sensory richness, and social use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At its core is a modular planter system that introduces vegetation and enables trees and ecosystems in constrained urban areas. Around it, seating and plant-support structures provide shade and shelter, replacing conventional poles and canopies. Vegetation is central, shaping both function and form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project explores recycled fibre reinforced polymer as both a sustainable alternative to materials like metal or concrete and as an expressive medium with depth and texture. Curves, reliefs, and varied finishes create a new design language that departs from rigid urban furniture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inspired by Barcelona\u2019s esgrafiats, the design translates layered patterns of colour and geometry into a contemporary material language where surface, form, and pattern merge.

Presented as a prototype, Yggdrasil proposes a more ecological, sensory, and materially innovative vision of urban furniture and public space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yggdrasil \u00e9s una col\u00b7lecci\u00f3 de mobiliari urb\u00e0 que reimagina la ciutat mitjan\u00e7ant la integraci\u00f3 de vegetaci\u00f3, innovaci\u00f3 material sostenible i un \u00fas expressiu del color, la textura i l\u2019ornament. Proposa un canvi en l\u2019espai p\u00fablic, passant d\u2019objectes purament funcionals a entorns que afavoreixen l\u2019ecologia, la riquesa sensorial i l\u2019\u00fas social.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Al centre hi ha un sistema modular de jardineres que introdueix vegetaci\u00f3 i permet el creixement d\u2019arbres i ecosistemes en contextos urbans limitats. Al seu voltant, elements de seient i estructures per a plantes enfiladisses generen ombra i refugi, substituint pals i tendals convencionals. La vegetaci\u00f3 \u00e9s un element central que defineix forma i funci\u00f3.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

El projecte explora el pol\u00edmer refor\u00e7at amb fibra reciclada com a alternativa sostenible a materials com el metall o el formig\u00f3 i com a mitj\u00e0 expressiu amb profunditat i textura. Corbes, relleus i acabats diversos generen un nou llenguatge de disseny m\u00e9s fluid i menys r\u00edgid.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inspirat en els esgrafiats de Barcelona, el projecte tradueix patrons de color i geometria en un llenguatge contemporani on superf\u00edcie, forma i material s\u2019integren.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Presentat com a prototip, Yggdrasil proposa una visi\u00f3 m\u00e9s ecol\u00f2gica, sensorial i materialment innovadora del mobiliari urb\u00e0 i de l\u2019espai p\u00fablic.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yggdrasil es una colecci\u00f3n de mobiliario urbano que reimagina la ciudad mediante la integraci\u00f3n de vegetaci\u00f3n, innovaci\u00f3n material sostenible y un uso expresivo del color, la textura y el ornamento. Propone un cambio en el espacio p\u00fablico, pasando de objetos puramente funcionales a entornos que fomentan la ecolog\u00eda, la riqueza sensorial y el uso social.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En su n\u00facleo hay un sistema modular de jardineras que introduce vegetaci\u00f3n y permite el crecimiento de \u00e1rboles y ecosistemas en contextos urbanos limitados. A su alrededor, elementos de asiento y estructuras para plantas trepadoras generan sombra y refugio, sustituyendo postes y lonas convencionales. La vegetaci\u00f3n es un elemento central que define forma y funci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El proyecto explora el pol\u00edmero reforzado con fibra reciclada como alternativa sostenible a materiales como el metal o el hormig\u00f3n y como medio expresivo con profundidad y textura. Curvas, relieves y acabados diversos generan un nuevo lenguaje de dise\u00f1o m\u00e1s fluido y menos r\u00edgido.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inspirado en los esgrafiados de Barcelona, el proyecto traduce patrones de color y geometr\u00eda en un lenguaje contempor\u00e1neo donde superficie, forma y material se integran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Presentado como prototipo, Yggdrasil propone una visi\u00f3n m\u00e1s ecol\u00f3gica, sensorial y materialmente innovadora del mobiliario urbano y del espacio p\u00fablico.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
