The Ripple @ Maribor

// Competition Entry

The ripple is a floating multifunctional piazza that adds a new landmark that celebrates the Drava River and the beautiful city of Maribor. Our scheme's form comes from the 3-dimensional representation of its namesake, a ripple, extruded and tiered to create an amphitheater around a central open space. The cascading rods on either side act as windbreakers while providing the opportunity to frame the river view and also the opportunity to carry a fabric covering to provide shelter on rainy days.
