Project Description

“This place is teeming with life. Every time you look around you discover something new.” (Niggbus director Alfred Herburger). In the course of a renaturalisation project, thousands of rare, native plants and shrubs have been planted on the company grounds – a natural paradise for wild bees, butterflies and endangered insects. Thus the adjoining “Churer Straße” is probably Vorarlbergs most species-rich and best-smelling bus stop.

A text in large lettering placed on the bus shelter is introducing the project and three rocks are providing more information about the natural garden and its inhabitants. Sensitive texts as well as abstractly illustrated plants and animals are incorporated into metal sheets, that seem to be folded casually over the three boulders. Their calm and lightness resonate respectfully with the atmosphere of the surrounding.
