On times square appeared antiterrorist benches

The problem of terrorism is now so obvious that to ignore it will not succeed. The fight against terror is making adjustments in life, affecting unexpected areas of human activity. For example, the design of small architectural forms, which we used to see on the streets and in the parks of cities every day.

The increased incidence of terrorists using vehicles to attack, forced to seek original and effective solutions for blocking trucks in pedestrian zones. New York designer Joe Blows (Joe Doucet) proposed an original solution that will not only spoil the city streets, but, on the contrary, will become their ornament.

Anti-terrorist street benches Rely created by Joe, fit perfectly into the urban landscape. Moreover, they are so unusual and spectacular that is near them and wants to do a selfie. However, the original design is a more effective way to deter motorized terrorists than police barricade or barrier of cars.

Design, despite its size, looks massive and intimidating, and certainly would not expect any pitfalls. If the car is at full speed collides with a bench Rely, it acts as a buffer device, reluctantly yielding to the onslaught, but involving a car into a trap. Weight benches is quite impressive — more than a ton, although it looks like the product of a frivolous light plastic.

Blowing took care that his child was not too expensive to manufacture. The individual elements of the shop printed on a 3D printer, and then, already in place, incorporate in whole the product of a powerful steel rod.

His development of Joe Blows demonstrated during the event, NYCxDesign festival, where designers and artists in new York can showcase their work and find interested customers. The first antiterrorist bench Rely already protects against terrorists and the Central part of the square times square.
