Ich Sehe Dich Bench by Meinrad Ladleif

»I see you«
A bench whose innovative, linear design seems to be in stylistic contrast to the half-timbered idyll of the nearby village. However, the view of the village and the landscape is only to be perceived at second glance. The first intensive look is directed at the person sitting opposite, meaning attention, closeness, longing or desire.

In the middle of the fields, meadows and half-timbered idyll of the nearby village there are two benches that, due to their modern design, do not quite fit into the overall picture. Their goal is also somewhat unusual: not to look into the distance together, but rather to devote the first glance entirely to the person sitting opposite.
