Kiosk K67

Concieved by Slovenian designer Saša J. Mächtig, the K67 kiosk was the most widespread modular design throughout Yugoslavia. Between architecture and industrial design, the fiberglass kiosks had a shape-shifting system that enabled vendors to perform a variety of economic functions. As indicated by the name, K67 kiosks appeared in 1967 and were a sign of the modern city, mostly selling newspapers at a time when they were widely read. K67’s design came in red, green and orange, and additional units could be added according to the spatial needs of vendors. Their production ended in 1999. During a span of thirty-two years, 7500 kiosk units were manufactured. The kiosk in front of Rilindja Media Tower is one of the last to be found in the city of Pristina.
