Circlular module symbolizes each person’s social circle. When these circles rotate and overlap, people start their play time in our project. Each module consists of an egg chair for 1-2 people to rest and rotating seats for 5-10 people to social. The four modules can be transformed from an individual mode into a larger collective activity space through rotation, meeting a variety of social needs. Manually rotatable seats and screens turn the public bench into a playful space. In the daytime, transparent materials frame the unique landscape of Luxe Lakes, and at the same time give the natural landscape layers of transparency. At night, the seats will glow while user rotating it, allowing people to create their own scenery.
