About Water Ripples Karrige

Puna bazohet në valëzimet e ujit dhe e kthen skenën natyrore në një karrige lëkundëse interaktive që ju lejon të uleni ose të shtriheni në karrige sikur trupi të lëkundet pa kujdes së bashku me lëvizjet e valëve të ujit. Karakteristikë e tij është cilësi rrjedhëse e valëzimeve të ujit. Pa marrë parasysh se brenda apo jashtë, veçanërisht aty ku ka dritë, valëzimet e ujit të tij do të tregojnë dritë dhe hije natyrore përmes tokës. Është si një skulpturë e valëzuar me konceptim artistik kur është në pushim; megjithatë, ajo bëhet një pjesë magjepsëse e mobiljeve kur ndodh një ndërveprim.
