urbanism

Great example of how human-centered design (can sit at mini tables and enjoy coffee outside) can also serve a dual purpose (impossible to lie down), quietly doubling as anti-homeless architecture.

Human-centered for some, exclusionary for others.

Lmfao the way I actually sleep in that position on my bed

was my first thought when i saw this pic lol

I’ve never seen anything like this and it doesn’t look like a useful table

Design that comforts one group while displacing another isn’t neutral 
 it’s policy disguised as aesthetics.

Not really human centered then is it? Unless you count homeless as non human.
