The concept envisions a quiet, lushly greened and contemplative courtyard garden. In addition to reading, lingering and coming to rest, playing is another focus. A play sculpture with a sand surface and integrated drinking and play fountain forms the central element of the courtyard. Small stones for jumping and reading interpret the identity-forming shape of the KuQua, from which the form whole design is derived. A plant border frames the courtyard and forms a buffer zone to the adjacent residential uses and strengthens the oasis-like character.
