2005 Good Design Award


The Bicycle-Shed, The Garbage Dump

Concept:
In the urban space Bicycles-shed and Garbage Dumps’ used to be low value. However, now these sheds blend right in with the urban space because of the development of design. We managed to improve design of these sheds. We created designing infinite curved forms based on the shipbuilding technology. In addition, the combination of squarish entrance and the amorphous bicycles-shed fit naturally into the space because it is an asymmetry combination. These sheds are made of the same materials that also make these sheds fit in with the space. In consideration of maintenance-free, these sheds are created as single plate constructions which made with weather-resistant alloy steel panels.
