Features: In modern society, street furniture is regarded as a constituent element of urban landscapes. Not only are its functionality, quantity, accessibility, durability, and comfort subjected to increasingly stringent demands, but its aesthetic design, color, materials, as well as its coordination with the surrounding environment, design creativity, and interaction with citizens' lives, are also beginning to receive attention. This book first explains the term "street furniture," then takes its development history as the axis, with Paris, France, as a reference example, sequentially introducing the forms and characteristics of street furniture from different eras.
