Product catalog summary
Introduction
Modular construction is a design strategy that uses repeated urban elements to create larger systems for landscape design. This document examines modular seating elements from the Escofet catalogue, suitable for urban projects, and highlights their role in integrating green areas to combat climate change and promote biodiversity.
Lineal Modularity
Lineal modularity involves repeating a single element longitudinally to create large benches that define spaces. Examples include the Zuera and Geneve benches, both made of reinforced concrete and designed for comfort and durability.
Zuera Modules
The Zuera bench is a robust concrete structure available with or without backrests and armrests, made of etched and waterproofed concrete, and can be installed without anchoring.
Geneve Modules
The Geneve bench is a continuous modular bench with rounded edges, made of etched and waterproofed reinforced concrete, and anchored to the paved surface.
Garonne Modules
The Garonne benches, representing parts of a river, are made of moulded concrete with an etched and waterproofed finish, and can be anchored or rest on the paved surface.
Tiers Collection
The Tiers collection includes benches and tables made of UHPC-Slimconcrete, offering versatile configurations for socializing, relaxing, or working.
Kushi Modules
The Kushi urban bench, resembling a pillow, is made of moulded concrete and easily installed on paving.
Multidirectional Modularity
This involves creating green islands with diverse geometric configurations, used for designing green enclosures with perimeter seating or zigzagging benches.
Gather Collection
The Gather collection includes versatile benches with backrests and headrests made of UHPC-Slimconcrete, offering various urban configurations.
Modular Collection
The Modular bench collection creates boundaries between pedestrian spaces and green areas, available in various shapes for sinusoidal alignments.
Serp Modules
The Serp system consists of modular benches with different radii and lengths, creating zigzagging benches with optional LED lighting.
Overview
The document describes various modular bench systems for public spaces, highlighting their flexibility, materials, and installation methods.
Specifications
  • SERP: Modular benches with LED lighting options, made from etched and waterproofed concrete.
  • Comú: Flexible collection for indoor and outdoor use, made from non-reinforced moulded concrete.
  • Hebi: Features a plastic extruded profile, made from moulded concrete.
  • Mirador: Planters with oval perimeter benches, made from moulded concrete.
  • Boxland: Offers minimalist street furniture, made from etched and waterproofed concrete.
  • Band & Piano: Urban fittings with benches and planters, made from concrete, galvanized steel, and FSC® tropical wood.
Materials
Most systems are made from etched and waterproofed concrete, with some using teak wood or recycled concrete. Band & Piano use galvanized steel and FSC® certified tropical wood.
Installation and Recommendations
  • Modules are designed for easy installation, either resting on the ground or anchored.
  • For green enclosures, an insulating sheet drain is recommended to prevent moisture contact with concrete walls.
  • Proper drainage is achieved through recommended joints and sling passes, with options for complete waterproofing.
Design and Consulting
Escofet_lab offers design consultation to adapt modular systems to specific project needs, ensuring value addition and improved user experience.

U-CENTER, BUCAREST, RO BERSOS & ABDUL ARCHITECTS ISLAS VERDES EN. Modular construction is one of the most ancient design strategies. By repeating an urban element such as a concrete bench, a much larger system is put together for the design of a landscape based on a minimum unit. This document lists the options and potentialities of the various families of modular seating elements in the Escofet catalogue, making them easier to understand and tailoring them to all kinds of landscape projects in public and private urban settings. Moreover, modular enclosures can promote the integration of green...

QUARTIER DE L’ETANG, GENEVE, CH AGENCE TER GENEVE MODULARIDAD LINEAL LINEAL MODULARITY EN.The modular repetition of a singular element in a longitudinal direction can project large linear benches that delimit the space and generate flows. From slab models supported by metal brackets to solid monoblocs, the incorporation of accessories such as backrests and planes at different heights enables the design to transcend the mere seat and become part of the landscape.

EN. Geneve is a continuous modular bench with rounded edges offering visual, tactile and functional comfort. Designed as an element for rest, it invites interaction and play through its changes in height. Made of etched and waterproofed reinforced concrete and supported by galvanised painted steel brackets, its modularity is unlimited and fluid to create the impression of floating. It is anchored to the paved surface. ES. Geneve es una bancada modular continua con bordes redondeados que ofrecen confort visual, táctil y funcional. Diseñada como elemento de descanso, invita a la interacción y al...

EN. The Garonne modular benches have rounded edges to evoke river erosion of rocks. Its modules depict different parts of the river: Aran (source), Toulouse (middle course) and Bordeaux (river mouth). The benches are 2 m long and 60 cm deep and they vary in height, depending on the model. Aran and Bordeaux have surfaces divided into two heights adapted as an ischiatic support or for children. Made of moulded concrete with an etched and waterproofed finish, they can either rest on the paved surface or they can be anchored. ES.

Applying small variations to the module, be it concave or convex or with countless radii of curvature, increases the possibilities of projecting geometries into the space. This makes it possible to design ensembles to construct green enclosures with perimeter seating or form long zigzagging benches in the space.
