Follow the Black Cat: a signage and photo-spot system for a seaside promenade
A concept prepared in 2026 for a seaside restaurant in Pobierowo. One motif, a black cat, leads guests from the promenade and the beach paths all the way to the entrance. Each element combines a function (direction, menu, seating, a place for a photo) with a recognisable form, in one language of form consistent with the venue’s logo.
It is shown here because sculptural wayfinding is a repeatable service for towns as well: the same approach can carry a promenade, a trail or a harbour. Status: Concept, not yet realised.
The elements
Cat photo spot
A sculpture of approximately 3 × 3.2 m for photos at the entrance or on the terrace, with optional evening lighting.
Sculptural A-board
An interchangeable menu-of-the-day board on a sculptural base.
“Follow the Black Cat” signposts
Three variants of small signs by the promenade, the beach path and the main street.
Sculptural bench
Seating with a cat motif, in several variants.
Construction
A steel frame, a shape carved from EPS/XPS, a layer reinforced with glass-fibre mesh, hand-modelled sculptural concrete and a protective coating for outdoor conditions. Stable bases; the smaller elements can be moved.
Concept visualisations
Renders and concept boards. Status: Concept.

Themed beach zone: totems and lounge
A scenography concept prepared in 2026 for a seaside bar on the Baltic coast. The goal is a zone where guests stay longer and come back to in the evening. Instead of random decorations we propose one story for the whole zone: an entrance visible from the beach, seating around the fire and totems that become sources of warm light after dark.
The elements are designed for wind, salt, sand and heavy use during the season. Style variants: Sun, Ocean and Pirates. This is a concept for a commercial venue, not a municipal project. Status: Concept, not yet realised.
The elements
Totems
Sculptural columns with light in Sun, Ocean and Pirate variants.
Fire pit lounge
Relaxation areas arranged around the fire.
Landmark entrance
A recognisable gateway to the zone, visible from the beach.
Evening light
A lighting scenario that keeps guests there after sunset.
