“城市家具，流行起来!”——这是西雅图市中心街道上的一次创意性互动。九月的西雅图大街因此变成了男女老少们的游乐场。八块可移动模块可以组合形成多种形状，给许多人提供座位或者玩耍的装置。西雅图LMN建筑师团队领导一个由学生、教师、设计者、施工方和承包商等组成的团队实现了这个项目，目的是使西雅图市中心街道活跃起来。此项目为西雅图设计节创造了一个交谈、玩耍和互动的中心。

项目的灵感来源于想要给使用者提供在公共场所塑造属于自己的空间的机会。简单的说，基础的模块使人们可以自己决定想要将它们组合成什么形状，让人们有一种互动体验。“城市家具，流行起来!”的活动满足了使用者的需求，体现了2014年西雅图设计节的主题“移动中的设计”。据项目的策划者说，这个项目“通过制造可移动、变化多端、用途广泛的模块，探索了短暂的街道生活以及各种节日的另一种形式。”

每一块模块都是用改造过的木材和3Form塑料制造而成。模块轻巧、紧凑而且可移动，所有人都可以轻易地将它们搬动。在为期两周的设计节期间，这些模块经受住了考验，不仅活跃了西雅图街道还为公共交往提供了新的场所。“城市家具，流行起来!”在设计节后还将继续放置在西雅图的城市街道上，完成它的使命。

Downtown Seattle was transformed into a playground for people of all ages in September with Pop-Up! Street Furniture, an creative take on interactivity in the built environment. Eight movable modules combine to create endless configurations capable of forming either seating or play space for a dozen people. The project was realized by Seattle-based LMN Architects, leading an inter-disciplinary team of students, professionals, designers, manufacturers, and contractors, intent on stimulating ordinary streets in the city’s downtown core. Created for the Seattle Design Festival, the project created a temporary hub for conversation, play, and engagement.

Inspiration for the project stemmed from a desire to create opportunities for users to configure their own space within a public context. Simple, rudimentary blocks offer endless configurations to be determined by the user, providing an interactive experience on an elemental level. Pop-Up! Street Furniture capitalizes on the Seattle Design Festival’s 2014 theme of “Design in Motion,” offering public sculpture responsive to the needs of its users. According to the creators, the project “explores the transient aspects of street life and temporal nature of festivals through the creation of movable, interchangeable, multipurpose objects.”

Each of the eight blocks is built of reclaimed wood and 3Form plastic. Lightweight, compact and dynamic, the blocks are designed to be accessible and easy to use for all types of people. Throughout the two week duration of the festival, the blocks were tested to their limits and succeeded in creating new spaces for public interactivity while activating the streets of Seattle. Pop-Up! Street Furniture will continue to be installed throughout the city after the festival, in keeping with its mission of eliminating barriers through the creation of interactive spaces.
