Gardens of the deadly sins

Based on the thematic “gardens of thedeadly sins”, Bloom creates an abstract and fairy space between profusion andreserve. Exploiting contrasts of colors and volumes, a large slender tablecomes to encircle the object of all the desires, the garden. This furnitureinvites the passers to contemplate the vegetable feast all while preventing theaccess there, manufacturing a mixture of amazement and desire. To support this duality, Bloom exploits thedisparities. The neighborhoods are neutral, as well in their colors as involumes. On the contrary the central garden is avoided of a bright red, colorof desire, and exploits the differences in levels, developing a rich anddynamic topography. These treatment differences clink: the garden entends to bepowerful and extremely alive while furniture and its context want to be fragileand delicate. A game with the passers develops then: one can sit down and peelthe different species of plants around the table to discover the plants hiddenby topography. The project also offers an incredible viewon the Loire, furniture is adjusted in such way that it agrees with the cuttingof the trees, making benefit with the view on the largest river from France. Bloom with thus for vocation to be an interactive space, favorable with themeeting and the discussion by supporting a convivial and familiar place. Furniture is usable by all and appropriable by each one. The children drawthere while adults ask questions and compare the various species of plants. People meet and leave around this inaccessible garden. Project Name: Gardens of the deadly sins Location: Chaumont, France Company: NAS Architecture
