garden cube sculpture

garden cube

Stone Plant Sculpture is a minimal garden formed as a cube measuring 130 by 130 by 130 centimetres. One half is a block of Jurassic limestone, cut in a quarry in southern Germany. The visible stone surfaces are chiselled and brushed to give an aged look. The other half is made of four yew plants, pruned to the final size after planting. An almost diagonal line marks the joint between stone and plant. The design is a European interpretation of Japanese Zen gardens. The cube stands on a flat lawn and needs low maintenance.

garden cube sculpture by Udo Hubert Dagenbach was highlighted as an exceptional representation of industrial design by the A' Design Awards. garden cube sculpture was awarded the Silver A' Design Award in Street Furniture Design in 2017. The A' Street and City Furniture Design Award is a highly prestigious, international, juried design accolade which rewards superior design of benches, bollards, bus shelters, bicycle racks, litter bins, planters, signage, lighting fixtures and more.
