City Lounge – the latest project of renovation of the Market Square in Kielce was greatly appreciated!

This project, designed by three architects – Grzegorz Bień, Michał Gdak and Ewelina Gdak and manufactured by ZANO Company received very positive reviews. Well-known and popular webpages about street furniture and modern urban spaces found City Longue as an important step towards changing perceptions and arrangement of the central parts of the city…

“New quality”, “A perfect place”, “Praiseworthy reconstruction”, “Unusual items”, “Every centimeter used z with great caution”, “Success of investment in Kielce” – these are just some examples of superlatives about City Longue manufactured by ZANO. They come from popular architectural websites . Editors of portals such as: inspirowaninatura.pl or bryla.pl appreciated the innovativeness of City Longue project.

The public spaces, and especially the area around the most representative buildings, is a showcase of the city. The classic place with benches and litter bins are slowly becoming out of date – nowadays they are being replaced by real City Longues – according to the article on the popular page inspirowaninatura.pl.

Design and the quality of furniture of City Longue was also appreciated by the prestigious website bryla.pl, where we can read:

City Longue consists of unusual items: a hanger for handbag, sun loungers, hammock, bicycle rack and even … hanging carpet with pillows.
