Purpose
“Les Racines du Mal” aims at structuring a public space by creating micro public space. Unlike an ordinary lighting mast which has a minimal base, “Les Racines du Mal” has a sprawling base which forms an islet within the public space. It generates a place of small gathering while at the same time prevents from massive regrouping.
