R.O.S.S.O (Reclaiming Outdoor Spaces with Seating Opportunities) sparked from the need for furniture for the PSU’s Montgomery Street closure event in Spring 2019. That meant a product easy to move, flexible, durable and accessible. Composed by eight modular pieces, each one installed on a 40”x48” pallet, ROSSO is characterized by a double soul: wooden light-gray triangular components create space for users to sit, lay down, or stand; bright red metal customized components transform into amenities such as tables, books shelves and lamps.
