go sports furniture by rui bordalo from portugal

designer's own words:

GO is sports furniture for public space use.
Taking advantage of sports trend like indoor cycling, GO adapts it and gives it new function and meaning.
Besides being a great form of aerobic activity and beneficial in strengthening the muscles of the lower body, instead of simply burning between 400-600 calories in 40 minutes human power can be transformed into electrical power.
The traditional stationary exercise bicycle will be built with materials resistant to outdoor weather conditions and its spinning wheel will be part of a dynamo system to convert mechanical rotation into a pulsing direct electric current.
GO sports furniture promotes outdoor sports practice, new public space functions and the possibility for people to pedal together for a common good: the environment.
As Lavoisier’s Law says, “in nature, nothing is created, nothing is destroyed, everything is transformed.”
