Design Against Bike Theft
A project brief set by the RSA - the aim was to develop a means of deterring bike theft but also encourage active bike use within communities and cities. My solution came in two parts, a domed park based shelter and family unit bike stands. The dome solution was intended as a functional and enhancing element for any public park or large open grassed area. The idea behind the design was to encourage the safe use of public parks and provide safe and adequate storage/shelter for peoples bikes. The dome structure allows for grass/turf/plants/vegetation to be laid on top of it and have it become camouflaged into the surrounding area. Made of cast concrete sections, it would withstand the test of time and always remain a decorative feature in any public park area. The family unit bike stands are also decorative elements which aim to encourage families to make use of parks and be safe in the thought of their bikes being left in a secure location.
