I love these ‘active benches’ installed by 1:1 Landskab as part of the new Valby City Garden in Copenhagen. Relevant to my “Are we entering a post-playground era?” question, it has playful elements, but is not explicitly a playground…rolling hills, flowery plantings, urban forest, and the active bench, 100 meters long which tilts up and down and serves as a transition between street and city garden.
Brilliant. It reminds me of the edge at the Lackenbach Arboretum, only bigger and more, well, benchy.
