Remember this Name

Martin Solem is an undergraduate student at the Danish Design School

These are some samples of his work.

Love this! The Pocket Park Bench is made out of rotationally molded polyethylene and constructed over a steel frame with steel cables and marine-grade fitting.  As soon as dusk descends, the Pocket Park Bench will automatically defuse light so as the dawn starts to peak over the horizon the light will dim until it is no longer on.

The Pocket Park bench was designed with "pocket" parks in mind - small spaces for primarily urban communities to gather and enjoy some outdoor time.


Clearly this fabulous swing/bench would be an excellent addition to any personal space.








Is it just me or does anyone else see cocktails in the picture when you look at it from a distance?






Way to go Martin!

Cool idea producing this image on a computer to show how the Pocket Park Bench would function in a small town park setting.














I also found these sweet chairs on Martin's website.

The Sledge chairs are quite lovely and would be an excellent choice for a garden.



They have been created for both indoor and outdoor use.





How exciting to find a student so full of promise!

I am excited to see designs from Martin and will be watching, with great anticipation, for his next creation


.

Note : The designs here are prototypes they are not at this time available in the retail market .... Lets all hope they are soon though :)
