kiosk m.poli

Brut Deluxe Architecture + Design as Architects

The kiosk is designed to be used for temporary street markets or handicraft fairs. It isn’t thought of as an individual object, but as part of a whole that builds up a small village, a little world of its own fitted into the city. The design is based on archetypical images: town, house, chimney… When closed, the kiosk is a volume covered by a double roof, a house in its uttermost minimal expression. The scale and the shape are so basic that at first glance it might even be a toy, a Monopoli house.


When opened a transformation starts. A part of its façade rotates upon the roof and the kiosk acquires a more vertical and striking proportion: that of a house with an oversized chimney. The chimney works as a great advertising board and is back litten at night. With the transformation the kiosk reveals its inside, a house full of surprises, each one different and randomly colored.


Area: 2m x 3m x 2,40m (height)
