Magnus Pettersen from Central Saint Martins took first in a brief set by the Design Council that asked students to “create a product, service or communication piece designed to specifically reduce crime”. The ‘BLABR_stand’ acts as both bike rack and meeting point, so that people gathering there also keep an eye on the bikes, thus deterring thieves.

The BLABR_stand won the D&AD student award 2008.
