Today we’re going to branch out into something that’s not necessarily architecture. The project deals with many of the same factors though, like space and use. An installation to create a “playground” in an urban plaza.
STUDENT: Jolan van der Wiel, Josha Roymans
CLASS: Graduate Design Project
Water bottles collected from the streets are used as molds for concrete playing elements. The smooth texture of the botlles gives the casted concrete a huggable surface. The simplicity of the material and production makes the elements easy to reproduce locally.
