Sustainability in Urban Furniture Design; The Use of Renewable Energy Sources

The use of sustainable and renewable energy sources with design to facilitate urban life is becoming increasingly common all over the world. The purpose of the study is to identify and analyze implemented and concept design of the urban furniture that use renewable energy. Within the scope of the study, the concept of urban furniture design and its reflections on renewable energy use are discussed with examples from different parts of the world. This study as a literature research, combines the concept and methods of using renewable energy in urban furniture design, examines the applications, the concepts and aims to create a conceptual framework for future studies.
