I actively follow a local design studio who are greatly inspired and motivated to create more pieces of urban furniture to display and integrate in the urban scene of Chisinau. One of the beauties that I so like to admire and use is the urban furniture on 119 Lazo str, conveniently in front of a beautiful coffee shop.
The little table and the benches are special because the team crafting them has put great thought and work into integrating them into the atmosphere of the city center.
Also, the team (Mihai, Grigore and Pavel) are doing such a great job in documenting their journey, so I invite you to see the full story on the mikelesta.com blog.
In the photo, you can see only the concept, as I would like to make you curious and go experiment the real deal over a nice cup of coffee - a perfect place for an autumn day in Chisinau.
