This urban element is hard to categorize. A sculptural mix between a solid concrete bollard, a solar-powered light, a resting spot or gathering point and a bicycle parking stand for 11 bicycles.
Free light – no cables – no installation issues.
Ambient, indirect light diffuses through the slits to create a star pattern. Use in a bike parking area, as a focal point in a square and/or to restrict an area for traffic or reduce speed.
Jello – as indicated by the name – was inspired by a cake- or jelly mould. The simple trick of turning it upside-down gave rise to a series of utility scenarios: Light can flow through the openings of the shape; bicycles can be parked between the legs and the entire, mobile entity can be used as a meeting / resting spot or for traffic limitation.
The cake-shape is a multifunctional design object for modern, dynamic urban space.
Material and surface
Body: Moulded white/anthracite wet concrete. Resists wear and weather. Concrete is a dynamic material. Minor, cosmetic cracks may occur over time. Reinforced with stainless steel to strengthen the legs.
Light unit: Top ring made in stainless steel, top cover for solar cell in 6mm tempered glass.
Dimensions
Ø1165 x 706mm.
Bike function
Up to 11 bikes can be placed in the slits. An installation with Jello and 11 bikes reaches a diameter of max. 4m.
Light function
Guide- and atmospheric light.
The top-mounted solar unit emits ambient, indirect light, pointed downwards. Light diffuses through slits to create a star pattern. During daylight hours the solar energy gets stored on a battery - through a solar cell. At dusk, the light will turn on and light up all evening and night, according to the charged energy. At sunrise, the light will turn off again. The light output is auto-calibrated by a building-in algorithm (after 3-5 days of sun exposure) to the time of year to prolong the light.
Light unit
Solar cell: Monocrystalline, 3Wp. Battery: NiMH, 3.6V/3.700mAh. LED: 3 x 1W white (4000K). Electronics: Intelligent processor controlled for optimum energy storage and light optimization to its location and time of year.
Fixation
Directly postioned on the ground. No fixation needed due to its weight of 400kg.
Mechanical strength
IP-rating: IP 65 / IK-rating: IK 8 / Corrosion class: C4
Maintenance
Maintenance-free, except for change of battery after approx. 6 years.
Keep top with solarcells free of dirt to ensure max. light.
The surface is treated with a coating, which has a repelling effect on dirt and particles.
In case an anti-graffiti surface is needed, it is recommended to give the surface an anti-graffiti treatment which is offered as supplement.
Variant
Version without light: Jello #313
Variant colour: Grey (RAL 7004) and Anthracite (RAL 7016).
Other light colour, other battery type or other light profiles.
