Placed in a Richmond residential development are three discs at 8’, 10’ and 12 feet in height. Coloured in orange-red with mirrored stainless steel edges, they welcome the urge to explore, climb, celebrate and play.
 

“WE WANTED THE PIECE TO BE PLAYFUL, INTERESTING AND VISIBLE FROM A DISTANCE”

 
The smallest disc is donut shaped with the hole at seating height. The medium disc is sliced in half and leans slightly outwards, leaving a path big enough for children to pass through. The largest disc has three shapes cut out of it – a triangle, a square and a rectangle providing access and views. The forms lean at a various angles from one another creating a collective momentum and motion.
