1999 / 2002

"Playtime" and "Evolution", Burri public elements

Two seating elements that cannot deny their affinity

At the invitation of landscape architect Stefan Rotzler, I designed the stool Playtime, which pays homage to Swiss furniture history for the Swiss appearance at a garden show in the Chinese city of Kumming in 1999.

Three years later, a new take on the product was created with the fitting name Evolution. This stool was equipped with a seating surface made of powder-coated stainless steel and is available in various colors. It can both be found at playgrounds and at bars. Both items of furniture can be used outside or inside.
