or anti homeless space
That’s what I thought. IMHO, hostile architecture is the physical-world equivalent of a lot of the policies that led us to flee Reddit, Twitter, etc.
My first thought. You could put up three 2 person benches there without too much trouble. It’d still look fine with spaces between so people can sit alone.
Is there a hostile architecture community here?
In this case Finland actually takes care of their people and homelessness isn’t a problem there. They’re just really polite introverts who I might guess prefer sitting alone as opposed to on a bench close to others.
Source - my introverted niece met a Fin, fell in love, moved to Finland and is in absolute heaven. Her husband has visited the States a few times and is always overwhelmed with the casual social interactions with strangers in public.
Finn here, we still have a ton of those stupid benches with a railing in the middle.
Holy shit, can someone please get me to Finland?
Perhaps they are afraid of sitting next to someone from Sweden who eats Surströming.
Gotta back off further than that, yo.
“one person benches” you mean chairs?
Ain’t Finland a paradise?
Not getting sunlight for months in a row tends to make people depressed.
*to make people look depressed
We have single person benches in my city not because people don’t want to sit next to each other, but so homeless people can’t sleep on them.
Probably a shit-ton if the seats on the plane are spaced out the same way
They almost nailed it:
I don’t see what’s notable about your picture
Good bench
