It is difficult to rival the beauty of trees, with their tall, slender stature and the height of their crowns. Nevertheless, the ambition of the Parckdesign call for proposals was to take up the challenge of highlighting the ancestral link that exists between man and nature, between man's artefacts and his relationship with the natural element and environment by the means of urban furniture. Put in a contemporary context, park furniture is focussed on the willingness to experiment, test, enchance and discover natural sites that are seeking a more specific identity.
