These cool tubular structures made for public spaces were designed by Sebastien Wierinck. Known for his belief that luxury objects should be created out of materials at hand, wierinck transformed the bar by using ordinary red caterpillar tubes to create both a sculptural and functional display in which patrons could interact with the piece. The industrial material was arranged in a bundle, creating bench seating which extended upwards on either end, separating into individual tubes, outfitted with lighting elements to provide additional illumination. Originally this tubing was constructed for use as underground distribution networks for water, gas and electricity and now it is being turned into group-sitting areas with installed lighting and electronics.
