Misty Swings

— Clermont-Ferrand (63) — 2025
Designer: Martial Marquet Studio
Client: City of Clermont-Ferrand
Location: Place Regensburg

The installation forms a distinct spatial landmark, contributing to the structuring and identification of Place Regensburg. Developed on a circular geometry, it organizes a set of movement-inducing features — swings and dynamic seating — designed to accommodate varied and simultaneous uses, accessible and intergenerational. The design prioritizes constructive rationality, component durability, and controlled integration into the landscape.

A misting system is integrated into the structure to enhance user experience and summer comfort. A high-level emission point creates an aerial signal visible from a distance, while a diffuse mesh at the lower part generates a tempered microclimate in the seating areas.
