Design esquisse

Material: stone (carved and smoothened for comfortable seating) My design intervention is this simple piece of stone that would encourage group verbal interactions.

It is like a bench but far broader (like a sand dune or a small inclined curved plane), so one can sit on, lie down or eat on it in a comfortable position much like they would sitting on the grass.
