Tube Merano by Numen / For Use

 

Numen / For Use, a Croatian-Austrian design collective, were invited by local curatorial team BAU, to participate in the second edition of “Art & Nature”, a spring festival in South Tyrol, Italy. The result of that invitation was this large scale site-specific art project, named Tube Merano.

 

Here is a look at the planning model they created.

And at the same time, anchored to the ground.

The finished product is a tube-like netted structure that lets you climb through the trees.

The tube spirals up through the trees.

It is large enough for adults to climb through too.
