Description
The Photon solar bench (02.009) represents a sophisticated advancement in modern urban furniture, seamlessly blending sustainable energy technology with functional design. Designed by Filip Babiarz, this smart city solution is engineered to meet the demands of contemporary public spaces, providing both comfort and utility. The structure is available in either durable carbon steel (S235JR) or high-grade stainless steel (AISI 304), ensuring long-term resilience against environmental factors. The seating area is crafted from premium wood options, including European coniferous, hardwood, or oiled and premium exotic wood, offering a refined aesthetic that complements any architectural setting.
Equipped with 100 W photovoltaic panels, the Photon bench operates independently as a reliable energy source. Its core street furniture capabilities include an integrated battery pack—available in 36 Ah gel or 40 Ah lithium configurations—which powers an array of modern features. Users benefit from high-speed charging via two USB-A 3.0 and one USB-C 3.0 ports, with optional inductive charging and Wi-Fi hotspot modules available to enhance connectivity. Safety and ambiance are further supported by integrated neutral white LED lighting, which provides subtle illumination for evening use, making it an essential element for parks, plazas, and city centers.
This versatile bench offers extensive customization to fit specific project requirements. Configuration options allow for the inclusion of a functional side table or dedicated bicycle racks on either or both sides, optimizing the piece for multi-purpose transit hubs. Advanced multimedia additions, such as a Bluetooth speaker or a speaker with built-in memory, transform the bench into an interactive node. Branding is easily incorporated via etched, milled, or sticker-based logo placement. Engineered for secure, permanent installation via bolting to the ground, the Photon bench stands as a pinnacle of innovation in the field of benches and intelligent public infrastructure.
