Architects of Objects

Urban Furniture Consulting — Objects Designed as Architecture

Functional art, technically resolved — that is the practice. A bench, a planter, a balustrade, a sculpted edge: at the scale of architecture, every object is a decision. We design objects as architecture — site-specific, materially resolved, technically engineered and delivered fabrication-ready.

Custom furniture is treated as a parametric, fabrication-ready discipline — the same rigour Lucid brings to Lighting and Signage, applied at object scale. Revit-native parametric families, Rhino and SolidWorks for free-form geometry, federated and documented to STEP / IFC / DWG.

Urban Furniture Simulator

Urban Elements Placement Software

Placement as evidence — grounded in simulation, not in guesswork.

A simulation-driven environment for planning urban furniture — seating, shade and amenities across plazas, parks, concourses and public realms. At its heart runs an agent-based crowd model built on the validated Collision-Free Speed model, with our own algorithms for destination choice, dwell time, comfort and the behavioural weight of greenery.

  • 01Movement modelled as behaviour
  • 02Comfort & refuge weighed, not assumed
  • 03Placement backed by measurable demand
— Collections

Bespoke collections — one object family, one argument.

One collection, resolved as one argument — every piece sharing the same material logic and proportional system.

Frequently asked.

Common questions about scope, deliverables and coordination.

— 01Are these mass-produced catalogue products?+
No. Each commission is a bespoke object family — every piece sharing the same material logic, formal grammar and proportional system, created for one place, one programme, one architectural intent.
— 02How is placement decided?+
Where required, the Urban Furniture Simulator models pedestrian behaviour and demand to justify where each element belongs — quantitative selection and placement, with a clear rationale behind every number.
— 03What does fabrication-ready mean here?+
Every piece is resolved to joint, weld, fixing and tolerance detail and exported as STEP / IFC / DWG / PDF, ready for metal, joinery and stone fabricators without translation.
