Eindhoven is a rapidly growing city, and to manage this transition, the municipality is undertaking extensive construction and improvement works in the city center. Recognizing the potential for disruption, the platform “Open Eindhoven” was established to centralize and communicate these developments clearly to residents and visitors.

As part of this identity, Bygg Architecture and Design proposed the Heavy Vibe: a multifunctional roadblock designed to redirect traffic and signal active work sites while adding character to the city.

The Heavy Vibe is a three-dimensional representation of the Eindhoven logo, painted in the city’s signature red and 3D-printed in concrete at Weber’s Eindhoven factory.
Bygg then integrated a wooden component and engineered the Vibe to be easily movable and adaptable, allowing it to function as a seat, a flagpole holder, a planter, or a light element, seamlessly blending utility and identity in public space.
