A thin ribbon of stone frames the Ness, starting as an access, becoming a path to run along for a kid, a bench for reading a book, a viewing point up and down the river, a back rest for looking across. In its upstream portion it weaves through the trees and bushes to offer a unique view up the river or back to the castle and the cathedral.
The diversity of interaction with the structure invites a wide range of possibilities for many users throughout the seasons.
Split by the river, the circle create a playful tension between both banks with the river at the heart.
The structure creates a monument to the river, monument in a new sense, no longer only about the things that are important to remember but as the things that are important to keep and protect, as a space to celebrate the sense of place, to interact and to perhaps see the familiar anew. A limelight for the theatre of the river.
