The bench design references the eco-shoreline in I · PARK. By creating a contrast of a wavy form seating vs solid concrete-like backseat, the bench reminds users the new I · PARK also serves as a safe home for sea animals. The bench is made by local reclaimed wood, that fallen down because of the typhoon, giving these “waste” a second life.
Half of the bench is currently located at I · PARK information centre (Cheung Chau), the other half is located at I · PARK information centre (Pui O). The will reunion when I · PARK is built and serves as public urban furniture.
