Wereldplek
Wereldplek / 2011 / Lewenborg School Boulevard / commission / CBK Groningen - Three large stools are spread out across the boulevard in front of a new combined preparatory vocational school. They are dotted along a diagonal axis across the entire length of the boulevard. Around each stool are twelve smaller stools that look as if they have been positioned at random. The large stools are made of concrete, and in terms of their proportions are an exact 1:65 scale enlargement of the smaller stools. The smaller stools are made of galvanised steel, and are anchored to the ground. The stools are based on a design by Alvar Aalto. The Aalto Foundation lent their support to the project.
