Are you planning to visit this year’s Biennale di Venezia? Then don’t miss out on dropping by Marinaressa Gardens – you won’t regret it!

What’s It All About?

As soon as you step across the threshold, you enter the largest space of all: public space. It is more than just a route from A to B. It is a terrain of encounters, of pauses and conversations.

Yet, public space is not automatically inclusive.

miramondo approaches this complexity with the credo that furniture can do more than furnish. It can invite. It can structure openness. It can create places where people do not only pass, but stay and meet.

The table-bench combination King Arthur emerges from this intention and picks up the theme of the 2026 Biennale, Confluences. Table and seating surfaces unfold like streams, tracing wave-like circles that suggest movement and gathering at once.

This is Where Confluence Begins

At the head of the ensemble, the seating surfaces open outward. This gesture dissolves hierarchy, avoids rigid frontality, and encourages eye contact. The design makes room for conversation, for difference, for participation. It offers a point of access – for public space is shared by people with diverse needs, backgrounds, and rhythms.

King Arthur does not claim to resolve the tensions of public life. Instead, it proposes a setting in which inclusion can be practised. The flowing forms become metaphors for social currents – sometimes parallel, sometimes intersecting, sometimes merging.

This is where confluence begins.
