Check out unique works from French design collective, Ferpect

Ferpect, a French design collective, recently won the top prize at the French street furniture design biennale for their work Dune, which is being exhibited at La Défense square in Paris until the end of the year. Ferfect is a group of architects, engineers, and thinkers.

Ferfect says their Dune system is a piece of ”micro-architecture” that can be moved around depending on the climate. The front side of the 20-degree acacia-wood slopes allows for sunbathing and people watching while the rear frame of pine slats provides shelter from the wind or sun.
