Negative by LauraCrane, is a

The five different components
vary in form based on their
function, from a lighter
component, to a planter
component, to an air-filtering
component that is coated with
titania nanoparticles to help
remove allergens from the air.
The placement of the
components is indicative of the
program beneath.

establish a memorable place
along this busy city footpath.

enclosed seating area and a
half-dead vine that is meant to
grow up the side. A second pod
has a solar light.
