Design is experience.

People sometimes ask me if VelopA products have their own design signature. "I don't think so," Feiko Withagen is an Urban Designer at VelopA Netherlands and believes that every outdoor location has its own identity.

"Well-designed street furniture supports this identity, but doesn't demand attention itself."

A well-designed product:
- is a physical link between people and the space
- goes much further than simply fulfilling a function
- is characterized by an understated design language
- consists of durable and easily recognizable materials
- is surprisingly user-friendly

VelopA through the years.

1959.

VelopA, founded in 1959 in Rotterdam, is celebrating its 65th anniversary this year. Since that time, we have been designing and producing bicycle parking solutions, street furniture and sports and play facilities for public spaces. Fun fact, the name VelopA was invented in Zurch, Switserland by Ubbo Wilhelm Groenendal (from a Dutch-Frisian family). Velo is the word for bicycle in both German-speaking and French-speaking Switzerland, pA stands for parking and parquer. He also came up with the capital letter A at the end of VelopA.
