garden cube

Stone Plant Sculpture is a minimal garden formed as a cube measuring 130 by 130 by 130 centimetres. One half is a block of Jurassic limestone, cut in a quarry in southern Germany. The visible stone surfaces are chiselled and brushed to give an aged look. The other half is made of four yew plants, pruned to the final size after planting. An almost diagonal line marks the joint between stone and plant. The design is a European interpretation of Japanese Zen gardens. The cube stands on a flat lawn and needs low maintenance.

The pedestrianized zone can return to a road in less than five minutes.

RovLocker

RovLocker is a smart parcel locker designed for public spaces. The system uses two module types: a main module and parcel modules. Each parcel module is formed by joining an inner cabinet and an outer cabinet with special electromechanical locks, so no fasteners are visible on the outer surface. The result is a seamless, minimal and anti-vandal appearance. For installation, maintenance and repair, the inner cabinet can be pulled forward once the locks are opened. Rear access is not needed, so the locker can be placed in many public areas.
