Evoke the feeling in nature back to urban life
INSPIRATION
The immensity of nature humbles, as mountains encircle, fostering a sense of unity. Reintroducing nature to the cityscape involves mountains' grandeur, boulders' motion, and vibrant plant forms and hues.
Design a seating element that allow people to feel closer to nature, close to the ground. Just like they’re sitting on a rock in desert, which enables people to experience the beauty and feeling of nature within the cityscape. Give people a feeling of relaxing and comfort.
SKETCH
Based on the concept for people to sit in different ways and positions. Design a seating element which will allow people to sit in different directions or even lay down. Give people a strong sense of relaxing and comfort.
