Modular kiosk system K67
With its smooth plastic shell and modular design, the K67 kiosk by architect and designer Saša J. Mächtig (b. 1941) was ubiquitous in the urban centres of the former Yugoslavia and other Eastern European countries during the latter half of the twentieth century. This modular system was designed to meet the need for technically and aesthetically well-designed structures facilitating the streetside development of retail activities and other services. Designed in 1967, its mass production was taken up by the Imgrad company in 1970. As a multifunctional system distinguished by infinite possibilities for growth, rearrangement, and reassembly, the K67 was an icon of mass industrial production, omnipresent in the modern cityscape and characterized by a long process of refinement over multiple product generations.
