Rewind Wind Turbine Blade Benches in Rotterdam, Netherlands
Source ↗ 👁 0 💬 0
The Rewind public seating at Willemsplein is a landmark example of circular design, repurposed from nine decommissioned wind turbine rotor blades that were originally destined for incineration.
Created by Superuse Studios, the installation utilizes the aerodynamic curves of the blades to provide diverse seating heights and ergonomic backrests, all anchored to blocks made from 90% recycled local demolition rubble.
In 2020, the site was transformed into a vibrant monument for the LGBTQI+ community
