Some interventions in the urban fabric can radically change the perception of a square, a street or a commercial activity. I would like to highlight this one, which involves architecture, design and, above all, creativity.
The French studio Heams & Michel Architectes has developed an interesting idea for a public square in Cannes, creating seven prefabricated kiosks with geometric aluminum grids that can be adapted to different uses.
Despite their identical design, the pavilions will be used as fast food kiosks, one as a service warehouse, and one with public toilets. Another two pavilions will be used by bowlers, who often play this sport in the public space around the structures.
The project, called 7 Kiosks, is part of a broader effort to renovate the Allées de la Liberté, a street between the port and the old town that hosts local markets.
The structures are closed when not in use and are equipped with light strips to illuminate the public space at night.
