The Slope: Stylish and Versatile Landscape Element for Public Spaces
The Slope by Escofet is conceived as a single model that presents itself as a striking landscape element, ideal for urban and natural settings. This unique piece combines aesthetics with functionality, achieving a harmonious integration with its surroundings. Whether placed as a solitary piece or in combination with other Slope elements, the design provides designers with a flexible foundation for creativity and composition. The organic, undulating form invites passersby to relax and take a break from the city’s hustle and bustle.
Durable Design for Long-Term Use
The Slope is crafted from high-quality reinforced concrete, making it resistant to all weather conditions and suitable for high-use public spaces. The carefully polished texture develops a natural sheen over time, keeping the element low-maintenance and highly durable. By using eco-friendly materials and a design focused on longevity, the Slope promotes a responsible and sustainable approach.
Combining and Creating with the Slope
As a solitary element, the Slope creates a quiet, intimate resting spot, but its modular nature also allows it to be arranged in various configurations. This provides designers with the freedom to shape larger, dynamic seating and rest areas, tailored to the specific needs of the project and environment. The organic design, inspired by natural structures, contributes to an inviting and tranquil atmosphere.
Inclusive and Accessible Design
With attention to accessibility and ease of use, the Slope is designed for people of all ages, including children and the elderly. Its low height and rounded forms make it easily accessible, while the ergonomic design ensures a comfortable seating and resting experience. This contributes to inclusive public spaces where everyone feels welcome to enjoy a moment of rest and contemplation.
Cast concrete with natural stone aggregates - finish : acid-etched and waterproofed
The Slope is easy to install thanks to its self-supporting design and substantial weight of 1500 kg, which provides stability without the need for additional fasteners or anchoring. Place the Slope on a flat surface and ensure a solid base capable of supporting the element’s weight. With its low center of gravity, the Slope remains stable even under heavy use and varying weather conditions. Once in place, no specific maintenance is required; the Slope will develop its own character over time through natural weathering, blending seamlessly with its surroundings.
