GINKO SYSTEM
DESIGN: MCA MARIO CUCINELLA ARCHITECTS
THE GINKO SYSTEM TAKES ITS INSPIRATION FROM THE ICONIC GINKGO BILOBA LEAF
It is a seating system composed of a bench module and a planter module.
The elements allow for infinite configurations by making the seating space dialogue with the possibility of integrating greenery.
The Ginko collection suggests a new way of using the seat, allowing it to be used informally and always differently.
Its modularity makes it a flexible system that can be adapted to different spaces.
