ELK BICYCLE STAND
ELK BICYCLE STAND
Even prettier when no-one’s around. This is Elk.
When you design a bicycle stand and end up with a sculpture.
The endless line of the basic form is enriched by angular corners, creating a highly functional stand with aesthetic qualities that are hard to find elsewhere on the market.
The unique concept of the stand for three bikes allows you to create interesting parking stations. Elk’s clean design and gentle lines make it easy to incorporate it into all kinds of architectural projects, contemporary or historical.
Recycled and fully recyclable cast aluminium structure. Suitable for up to three bicycles. Surface mounted.
DESIGNERS
DAVID KARÁSEK
Czech designer David Karásek (b. 1969) is a graduate from the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague, majoring in product design.
He is co-founder and creative director of mmcité, and the creator of a range of award-winning pieces of street furniture.
“For me, design is about searching for a compromise between form and function. In free art you express your thoughts as forms. Design as applied art wishes to express itself the same way, but it must be functional at the same time. Public spaces in a city are fascinating places where people and history meet. I am proud that we focus mmcité design right here. We can influence everybody’s taste, and we love that. No exclusivity, genuine accessibility. For mmcité this is nothing short of a cultural mission. We highly value our cities, so we are always pushing to make them more beautiful.”
