May I sit there?

Sitting is a position for rest. A rest from the hustle and bustle of life. It is a time to be alone or in conversation with others. I have observed a significant shift in how we think about seating. A little imagination has transformed the tradition park bench into functional forms of artwork. We live in a diverse world, each of us having unique preferences; seating should allow for this fact of life.

What I love about this is the set up of chairs and tables within the semi-circle structure. There is a clear division of spaces, yet still permeability throughout the entire site.

Love the simple forms of the colorful benches, as well as how they conform to other design elements such a as the paving and the inlaid planters.
