Ondine Bench, A Flowy One
When we think of urban spaces, it’s often about efficiency. Beauty usually plays no role in the design so the Ondine Bench is a perculiar concept. The smooth organic shape can be created by combining identical modules and arranging them into a circle. They provide a fun way for people to sit - some higher, some lower. Its modular design should make it easy and cheap to manufacture while lifting the urban environment by instilling a sense of design and beauty. Most importantly, its design is adaptable, as the designers put it;
Ondine in the city
Ondine under a tree
Ondine on the grass
Ondine by the water
Ondine under the sun
Ondine in the garden
Ondine at home
Designer: Michael Bihain & Cedric Callewart

I don’t know if you statements are entirely true. In urban spaces, a piece must function, or else it is worthless. As far as having no beauty, I think if you researched it a bit more you would find that statement to be wrong. In the case of your design, I don’t feel as though it is beautiful or stylish enough to warrant to decrease in functionality and efficiency.
