Tiers is a highly versatile outdoor furniture collection designed for Escofet, the Barcelona-based company famous for its urban elements and architectural concrete which transform cities and promote the use of public space.
Developed in conversation with the practice's landscape and urban design teams, Tiers offers different levels of ergonomic support and privacy to meet a range of needs. The industrial design team worked with 3D printers to generate a seamless transition between the leg and seat, while the edges enhance comfort and allow for drainage.
The collection's durable elements are made from ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) that has exceptional strength and durability, for a sleek and thin profile. Tiers is made up of a bench (45 centimetres), table or perch (74 centimetres), high table (105 centimetres) and low stool. These elements can be used individually or arranged alongside one another to create different configurations for socialising, relaxing, or working.
