Austrian/Croatian design collective
Numen, whose cocoon-like
constructions of sticky tape have been featured on the blog before, expanded their exploration of flexible space into nets for a contemporary art space in Belgium earlier this year. I love the way these provide for both bouncy activity and calm contemplation.
Nets aren't new on the playground. But like Toshiko Horiuchi's creations, Numen's work creates a fully three-dimensional space to be in, not just a piece of equipment to stand or climb on. That's why they feel so special, for children and adults alike.
