When we talk about urban furniture and new visions of tomorrow’s cities, outdoor bike racks become a central topic.<\/p>\n

Their design and implementation fit into a broader vision of urban environment planning, where transportation is becoming increasingly sustainable.<\/p>\n

In this context, functionality and design play a crucial role, always serving the needs of people.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

In a city striving to improve its performance and support the world around it with sustainable habits, designing outdoor bike racks contributes to this noble goal.<\/p>\n

LAB23’s Outdoor Bike Racks<\/h2>\n
In its extensive experience in the field of urban furniture, LAB23 has repeatedly engaged in the design and production of outdoor bike racks.<\/p>\n
Nowadays, there are over 20 models of bike racks conceived by our creative studio and created for the urban environment in major Italian and international cities.<\/p>\n
Let’s specifically look at some proposals for steel and wooden bike racks, as well as a few iconic bike rack models designed by Lab23, namely Wave Strip and Peo.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Steel Bike Racks<\/h3>\n
Steel,<\/strong> with galvanized or stainless steel finishes, is undoubtedly the preferred material for making bike racks for urban settings.<\/p>\n
This is because steel is one of the most durable materials on the market,<\/em> offering high resistance to corrosion, ease of cleaning, and a high level of hygiene.<\/p>\n
Examples of LAB23’s steel bike racks include:<\/p>\n
\n
Cornice<\/strong><\/a>: <\/strong>Combining modern design and practicality to promote sustainable mobility and a love for cycling.<\/li>\n
Time<\/strong><\/a>:<\/strong> Featuring minimalist design and a sturdy galvanized steel structure.<\/li>\n
Side<\/strong><\/a>: <\/strong>Offering customization options for color to blend seamlessly with the surrounding environment, providing a functional and aesthetically appealing solution to promote cycling in cities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Wooden Bike Racks<\/h3>\n
Sometimes, steel is mixed with wood, giving the bike racks an elegant and natural appearance that integrates well into urban and landscape environments.<\/p>\n
When properly treated with protective paints or sealants, wood<\/strong> can withstand external elements such as moisture, sunlight, and rain.<\/p>\n
LAB23’s wooden bike racks include:<\/p>\n
\n
Round-B<\/strong><\/a>: <\/strong>Crafted from iroko or okum\u00e9 wood, treated with natural hydro-repellent oils and UV-resistant. It features a round shape, measuring 1.6 meters in diameter.<\/li>\n
B-CYCLE<\/strong><\/a>:<\/strong> A bench-bike rack combination with a steel structure and a solid 40 mm exotic wood seat.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nWave Strip, Peo, and Others: Exploring LAB23’s Projects<\/h3>\n
As mentioned earlier, LAB23’s designers have created over 20 outdoor bike rack projects. Here are two more, each with its unique characteristics, design, and purpose:<\/p>\n
\n
Wave Strip<\/strong><\/a>: <\/strong>Designed by r+p RIGHETTO + PARTNERS, this outdoor bike rack is approximately 2.2 meters tall and 3.6 meters long, made of galvanized steel for durability. It’s suitable for electric scooters as well as bicycles<\/strong> and features a unique crescent-shaped closure for locking without the need for a chain.<\/li>\n
Peo<\/strong><\/a>:<\/strong> Designed by Leonardo Battaglini, Peo is a ground-mounted outdoor bike rack made of tubular steel, securely anchored to the ground with a circular base plate. The steel is treated with a sandblasting, cataphoresis, and powder coating process to ensure protection.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
These sustainable solutions<\/em>, harmonizing with the surrounding environment, are ideal for enhancing the urban landscape of towns, coastal cities, and small villages, bringing design and functionality to the lives of citizens.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2163,"featured_media":14722,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[],"yst_prominent_words":[],"class_list":["post-20722","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-product"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lab23.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20722","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lab23.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lab23.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lab23.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2163"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lab23.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20722"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.lab23.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20722\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20723,"href":"https:\/\/www.lab23.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20722\/revisions\/20723"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lab23.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14722"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lab23.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20722"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lab23.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20722"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lab23.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20722"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lab23.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=20722"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
