The shapes of the LENKO artwork subtly adapt to the main lines of the surrounding courtyard. The curved shape narrowing in the middle creates seating and leaning possibilities of different heights for users of all ages and sizes.
The simplified forms of the functional artwork create an understandable and beautiful harmonious whole, where heavy industrial material bends into a flowing form. The work consists of transverse support arches and longitudinal arches tied to them. The longitudinal lines on the surface form a visually hollow shell.
