Graduation project
Elevated Platform
Valentin Ruoß
City centres, especially pedestrian zones with high levels of commercial or tourist activity, can get pretty crowded. When the stimuli from these busy environments become overwhelming, people desire a somewhat isolated place to find their inner peace again. To this end, Valentin Ruoß proposes an elevated platform with several benches, to be placed a few metres above the busiest pedestrian zones. Here one can withdraw from the stress for a moment and enjoy the crowd without being part of it.
