With this range of street furniture, we wanted to give the city the emotion and light of our schoolboy memories. Simple and welcoming, with no frills, Antibes and Nice adopt a compactness that embodies Aréa’s thinking on the individual scale of street furniture.
Ottoman, chair, stool, counter … Are we talking about indoor or outdoor furniture? Indeed, in terms of twenty-first-century street furniture, does the sense of this border not stop or is it a historical beginning? It is the conviction of Aréa to restate its leitmotif through the Antibes and Nice ranges: to allow everyone in the public space to find the intimacy and conviviality that one feels at home.
This range also materializes our certainty that the densification of cities requires the availability of a new scale of street furniture. Extrapolated from that of a chair, the Antibes and Nice design is compact and highly transparent.
Aesthetic, affordable and welcoming, their components embody democratic design and meet the aspirations and needs of city dwellers in search of a fresh breath of air and a calmer rhythm of life.

Nice’s backless seating, arranged in clusters, or associated with Antibes models, invites users to approach each other and share. The minimalist and functional Nice counter reflects the image of a dynamic city in which sitting is not enough anymore
