“根凳”是对汉江艺术大赛获奖方案的重新诠释。这是一个直径30米的圆形公共家具，安装在草地上，呈现出贯穿公园的根系动态形态。它提供视觉刺激，与宽敞的户外公园背景形成强烈对比。人们可以在它的不同高度上坐着或倚着休息。从获奖方案中延续的主要概念是，从中心向外延伸的有机形状创造了空间连接。
由计算机算法设计的艺术作品从三维几何形态上呈现出动态性。混凝土基础的金属框架作为主要结构支撑整体形式，木制甲板覆盖。通过使用熟悉的材料进行整理，易于使用和维护，作为一个舒适的座位。根凳在形成完整的圆形的同时，也融入了草地，模糊了人工装置与自然环境之间的界限。在相互交流的同时，游客可以在休息空间中感到舒适，同时欣赏艺术品。它还可以完美地作为三种不同高度的家具:儿童椅(250mm)，成人椅(450mm)和桌子(75mm)。有节奏的形状可以给汉江公园带来新鲜的刺激，并提供多方面的乐趣。
设计过程中采用反应-扩散系统，集中表达伸展分支。这个数学模型描述了一种或多种化学物质的浓度在空间和时间上的变化:物质相互转化的局部化学反应，以及导致物质在空间表面上扩散的扩散。通过该算法，生成前景(装置)与背景(草地)融合的整体径向形状。

Root Bench is the reinterpretation of winning proposal in Hangang Art Competition. This is circle-shaped public furniture with diameter of 30m, installed in grass, which shows dynamic shape of root spreading throughout the park. It provides visual stimulus creating strong contrast to the background of spacious outdoor park. And people can take a rest with it while sitting and leaning on its different height. The main concept continued from the winning proposal is that the organic shape sprawling out from the center creates spatial connectivity.
The art piece designed by computer algorithm presents dynamicity from three-dimensional geometry. The metal frame with concrete footing supports the overall form as main structure and wooden deck covers it. By applying familiar material for finishing, it is easy to use and maintain as a comfort seat. As well as suggesting complete shape of circle, Root Bench is fused into the grass and blurs the boundary between artificial installation and natural environment. While communicating each other, visitors can feel comfortable in resting space and enjoy the art piece at the same time. It also functions perfectly as furniture with three different heights: child chair (250mm), adult chair (450mm) and table (75mm). The rhythmical shape can suggest fresh stimulation to Hangang Park and provide various aspects of pleasure.
To articulate spreading-out branch intensively, reaction-diffusion system is applied to design process. This mathematical model describes the change in space and time of the concentration of one or more chemical substances: local chemical reactions in which the substances are transformed into each other, and diffusion which causes the substances to spread out over a surface in space. Through the algorithm from it, overall radial form is generated with the foreground (installation) merging into its background (grass).
