The total Carpet weighs 6375 kilos
(6,5 kilo/m2).
The Flying Grass Carpet is not only to play on and enjoy the sunshine. There is much more possible
than that. A neighbourhood picnic, an open-air fi lmfestival, a frisbee tournament, a music festival,
anything you like.
Usually people go to the city parks for a stroll,
but more importantly they also use these public
gardens to lie in the sun, play football, have
a picnic with friends and enjoy other leisure
activities. The Flying Grass Carpet is a beautiful
green garden-carpet that will fly from one
location to another, staying on each location only
for a short period of time. Once it is has landed
it will function as a public park. It consists of
a combination of several artifi- cial grasses with
different characteristics and colours all woven
together to resemble an original Persian carpet.
The metaphorical traditional Persian carpet
creates a cosy atmosphere in the public space.
Its familiar design pattern combined with its
size will result in a unique transformation.
