Ringe art bench
Termini is thought of as a kind of promenade or belvedere towards the lake. The plant is a continuous bench or step, which raises a number of covered areas. the lengths and spaces are determined by the sequence of fibonacci numbers, which gives the figure its dynamic and ruinous character, while in the figure there is a seal at one end and a deferred solitary space in the other. The covered seats are divided by columns, thus challenging the basic feature of the bench as a social seating instrument. The entire plant is thought of in colored white concrete. The surface inside the figure is gravel like the surrounding path system. Termini may eventually grow to or along with the rest of the road around the lake.
