According to the theory, S-shaped curved lines indicate liveliness and activity as opposed to straight lines, parallel lines or right-angled intersecting lines, which signify stillness, death or inanimate objects.
\nWhen the Museum Singer-Laren commissioned us to design an outdoor bench to celebrate the new extension, we went back to that old text. The town of Laren, in North Holland, has been already known for a lively artist community in which experimenting, and broad thinking are essential. It felt appropriate
\nto use a continuous line, then 3D printed in concrete to represent a sketching line. The line of beauty it\u2019s an homage to the artistic frenzy of the area and to the unique museum.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” padding_top=”0″ padding_bottom=”30″ css=”.vc_custom_1556120768095{padding-right: 15% !important;padding-left: 15% !important;}” z_index=”” el_id=”freeform_images_3″][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”2838″ img_size=”full” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=””][vc_empty_space height=”15″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”2837″ img_size=”full” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=””][vc_empty_space height=”15″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”2963″ img_size=”full” qode_css_animation=””][vc_empty_space height=”15″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” padding_top=”0″ padding_bottom=”30″ css=”.vc_custom_1556120856600{padding-right: 15% !important;padding-left: 15% !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” padding_top=”30″ padding_bottom=”60″ css=”.vc_custom_1551870088440{padding-right: 15% !important;padding-left: 15% !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1553168996218{padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”2962″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” qode_css_animation=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” padding_top=”30″ padding_bottom=”30″ css=”.vc_custom_1556122877109{padding-right: 15% !important;padding-left: 15% !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column width=”1\/5″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
