As a part of an exhibition with urban installations curated by Scott Burnham and organized by Droog Design, NL Architects was asked for a contribution. The Pieces would be shown for 6 weeks as a part of the Experimenta Design Amsterdam 2008 (EXDA).

The Boom Bench features eight 60-watt co-axial speakers and two subwoofers that can be accessed through Bluetooth. The Boom Bench in a way is a super-sized Docking Station. Connect your player to the amplifier and take control. Now you can play your music with 95 dB high quality sound. 
Playing loud music in public will either attract or repel people. The music extends you personality onto the streets. As such it will shape the place. It is a showing off and putting yourself on the stage. Either you start an instant party or mark your territory. The music acts as an acoustic sign.
