dots

DOTS, set in California’s Morongo Valley, is a permanent space for gathering.

The 25 columns arranged in a five-by-five grid, spaced at eight feet apart, create bays that hold objects and platforms. These objects and platforms cross-brace the columns and allow for program flexibility within. The vibrant colors set against the desert palette and additions such as hammocks, shading, and a swing act as an open invitation for visitors to interact with the structure.

This structure was built from the ground up and designed by the DOTS team.
