Pit Stop


Anders Berensson won first prize in a green thinking competition Together with Nicklas Frenning & Anders Linde. The competition; to create a green installation on the size of a parking lot to make people reconsider their thoughts about travelling into a more ecological way. The best way to make people give up something is to give them a better option, Therefore the project focused on making cycling a more pleasant way of transport. The solution became a "cycle in café" where you can take a short pit stop. The cafe offered warmth, music, service for your bicycle while still sitting on it taking a quick coffee or a healthy beverage. After winning the competition the proposal was erected on the exhibition "I stan utan bil"(In town without your car) on one of the main streets in Gothenburg. And then on placed out side Chalmers university.
