Inspired by the elegance of Chinese-covered wooden footbridges, the design of this installation graces a meadow with irregular topography, gently lifted from the ground. A stunning arched structure, spanning over 100 metres, elegantly covers three glass enclosures. When viewed from above, this magnificent installation appears as a straight line, artfully slicing through the existing landform and forming a harmonious connection with the nearby factory.
At the heart of the meadow stands a cluster of majestic trees, reigning over the highest elevation. Adjacent to these ancient sentinels, an 8-metre high observation tower, crafted from natural wood, invites visitors to ascend and relish breathtaking views of the surrounding park. This multi-functional tower doubles as a projection screen support, enriching the park’s experience with awe-inspiring visuals.
The installation’s allure expands with an enchanting esplanade, a gathering place where outdoor cinema screenings and various events delight visitors. Gracing the perimeter of the esplanade, a series of linear benches and lamp posts are artfully scattered like ‘objets trouvés,’ offering unique spaces for individuals to build their tents, fostering a sense of community among nature’s embrace. Permanent barbecue grills strategically adorn the grounds, both functional and artistic in shaping the campsite’s layout.
Within the embrace of the meadow lies a linear building, housing essential facilities such as a rental shop, canteen, toilets, first aid room, and storage area. This versatile space becomes a haven for diverse activities, both indoor and semi-outdoor, amplifying the immersive experience of the installation.
As dusk descends, the meadow transforms into an enchanting wonderland. Lamp posts, emanating warm light reminiscent of fireflies, scatter their glow across the landscape, infusing the night with magic. Simultaneously, the long installation projects a mesmerizing 100-metre linear light, drawing visitors towards its alluring presence.
