Every year Nikola-Lenivets gathers hundreds of international artists who place their installations at the open air art festival in the park. Thus visitors can enjoy both a beautiful walk and an art exhibition. Some time ago the organizers of the festival have decided to complete the experience by building a belvedere which can offer a unique view through the entire exhibition zone.

The project proposal represents a giant staircase located on one of the main park alleys and built in weathering steel on concrete foundations. This is a double staircase with an opened and a closed stairway. Thus visitors can climb the closed stairway and discover the sudden surprise of the spectacular view from the top. After, they can go down by the opened stairs enjoying the diving back into the forest. At its foundations the structure has two entrances which allow those who don’t want to climb to pass across it by still getting a glimpse of its interior atmosphere. The closed part of the structure also allows the holding of various small artistic events on the ground floor level, by transforming the inner staircase into seats.
