Street furniture isn’t usually something that garners people’s attention or admiration. The best that street furniture can generally accomplish is the comfort of resting our legs in the midt of a tiring day but luxury and beauty are far from it. often enough, street furniture is so completely removed from the ambience of the rest of the city that they appear as hideous marks on the beauty of a city.

BMW Group DesignworksUSA would change it all with their Metro40 collection of street furniture. The street furniture has been designed by BMW for the Michigan based manufacturer Landscape Forms. The Metro40 collection is intended to heighten the aesthetic appeal of urban centers by offering a stylistic take on street furniture such as seating, lighting and other amenities. The seating appears comfortable and the continuous lines of everything in the collection provide a polished and slightly futuristic appeal.

The collection attempts to reflect the high-rise style of the fast-moving cities it will fit into and does so beautifully. In fact, the collection looks good enough to be sitting in the backyards of metropolitan houses and would certainly increase the attractiveness of any urban city.
