What if we cast concrete in stockings? The playful idea has led to a special technological process that radically differs from traditional concrete casting methods. The concrete is cast on a textil membrane stretched on a special framework support, and forms its undulating, rolling shape under its own weight, also showing the shape of the supporting framework. The goal here is to create forms that offer a pleasant, lovable, soft look. The organic plastics with their fine surface may be placed in the green areas of the city, like trays or tables that everyone can comfortably sit around.
