Test Benches - Confident pour confidences

in Saint-Étienne

  • Ah but in Saint-Étienne, benches are not just for sitting on. The Bancs d’Essai (Test Benches) scheme offers more curious passers-by the chance to take part in a life-size test. They – you – can try out the latest in urban furniture created by artists and designers from all over the world.

  • This bench situated in the park behind the Cité du Design is just the job for a relaxing moment - even a little snooze! You can come alone or with someone, to share business secrets face to face or to confide in a friend en tête à tête.
