Soft Ruin is a piece of furniture in many pieces. Configured as a soft building that falls apart, the actual pillows refer to the building components of a standard dom-ino frame: foundation, column and floor slab. This type of concrete frame inhabits the south mediterranean landscape like a reverse ruin, a piece of nature on the way to becoming a real building. Here this concrete frame has fallen apart after it has been squatted by neen. |
