As a part of the temporary usage of the ebertplatz, I was ask by the city of Cologne to design ashtrays for the galleries.
With the efforts of the city of cologne, citizens, collectives and many other players the ebertplatz has become a hub for art and culture in the last few years. Hosting concerts, exhibitions and lots of other events, it draws in people from all over cologne to it brutalist columns and musical escalators.
The ashtrays are bend from a sheet a stainless steel, feature a simple sliding mechanism for cleaning and are placed on the walls around the galleries.
