Out Story -

Since 2008, FANTÁSTICA has evolved from an urban design and placemaking studio to a global street furniture brand focused on sustainability and smart infrastructure.

In the last 16 years we’ve worked with city agencies and public space operators in the development of turnkey solutions and modular prefab systems to help make streets better.  complete streets.

Today, together with our sister company Oonee we are helping cities achieve carbon neutrality by creating equitable smart infrastructure for all. We bring a wealth of knowledge working with municipalities, developers, and advocacy groups on every aspect of operations — from administration and public space management to marketing and programming.
