Description
The Photon solar bench (02.009) represents the pinnacle of modern urban furniture, seamlessly integrating sustainable technology with sophisticated industrial design. Designed by Filip Babiarz, this smart city solution is engineered to meet the evolving needs of contemporary public spaces. The structure is available in high-quality carbon steel (S235Jr) or durable stainless steel (AISI 304), providing exceptional longevity and resistance to environmental factors. The seating area, featuring a comfortable backrest, is crafted from premium wood options including soft wood, European hardwood, or oil-finished hard wood, ensuring both aesthetic appeal and ergonomic comfort for park visitors or commuters.
Equipped with advanced renewable energy capabilities, the Photon bench utilizes a 100 W photovoltaic system supported by a robust battery pack—available in gel (36 Ah) or lithium (40 Ah) variants—to power its extensive array of smart features. This street furniture element provides essential connectivity, featuring two USB-A 3.0 ports and one USB-C 3.0 port for rapid device charging, with an optional 10 W wireless charger. Enhanced functionality can be achieved through a variety of configurable modules, including a high-speed Wi-Fi hotspot, Bluetooth sound systems, and subtle neutral white LED ambient lighting, making it an ideal choice for creating interactive, technologically advanced environments in city centers or educational campuses.
Versatility is at the core of the Photon line, allowing for precise customization to suit specific site requirements. The bench can be secured firmly via bolting to the foundation and accommodates optional features such as integrated side tables and bicycle racks on either side. Reflecting the brand’s identity, the unit allows for personalized branding through stainless steel etching, vinyl stickers, or precision milling directly into the wooden elements. By combining the classic utility of benches with green energy and high-performance digital infrastructure, the Photon solar bench serves as a cornerstone for future-proof urban furniture installations, ensuring both operational reliability within a wide temperature range and a refined visual presence.
