The bicycle is a practical form of transportation for many, so various designers created a public bike bench, which enables individuals to park a bicycle in a safe and comfortable manner.
The project implemented the 'Bike Bench' into the center of Gdynia, a port city on the Baltic coast in Poland. The bench, which serves as a bike rack hybrid, accommodates both guests of the park and the vehicles. The bench also offers a place for the cyclist to rest, eliminating the need for one to search for a space to securely lock a bike.
Complete with an integrated safeguard hub, this public bike bench offers both comfort and security to the cyclists of the city.
