Living Landscape
I, Lee Winfield, would like to design a Living Landscape. On the main ground floor, will reside these pieces for seating, lying, relaxing, reading and dwelling.
They will both restrict and divide as well as combine and bring people together.
The pieces will be modular, in the sense that they could be used individually without feeling restricted, or in pairs and combinations with each other. However they could easily fit together and form a unified piece of landscape that will act as both a divider and an area to spend time on.
They will be soft and comfortable but at the same time structural and should exist in the space as identities of themselves.
They can be transformed as they are physically rotated and placed on different angles, but this is the extent of their transformability.
The pieces should be comfortable to sit/lie/relax/read/study/conduct a conversation or a discussion on, as well as act as visual forms in the space when not used.
The pieces can be easily moved in the space and used in various ways to form them into several shapes for different needs.
Relaxing and comforting, surrounding and hugging, yet should not clog the space. Residents should feel free to move them and walk around them, push them aside and contain them rather than feel claustrophobic and enclosed.
The Landsca pe could be used by an individual, or by all residents simultaneously. When used by the collective, its design would make more sense, as if when used by all seven inhabitants, they will discover a hidden secret. When they reveal it, they will understand the true meaning of living in the Habitorium.
