History suggests Henry David Thoreau’s Walden Cabin consisted of 3 chairs; one for contemplation, two for conversation, and three for community. This sculptural gathering space is inspired by Thoreau’s 3 chairs, as it provides a place for solitude or dialogue. The de-commissioned Dept of Transportation Signs integrate yellow, a color representing the act of "slowing down”. This slowing down provides a public place, within the "thoroughfare" to pause,
rest and listen to others.
