Providing many of the features of a slick big-city or national park kiosk, is this modest homemade information stand seen in rural Oregon. It has a map, destination lists, visuals and explanations of local attractions, a place to post notices – even a trash can. The humble structure embodies many design elements that make good street furniture: shelter from the elements, good human scale and, maybe most important, strong contextual design. Sorry, no touch-screen.
