RAINBOW RINGS


Rainbow Rings, Phish Riviera Maya, Yucatán, Mexico, 2024

Team: Office Kovacs

Project Description:

Rainbow Rings is a beach installation commissioned for Phish Riviera Maya. Palapa wood posts, an everyday Yucatán building material, are painted in different bright colors and arranged in offset concentric rings around a central fire pit.

The loose forest of columns makes a social room on the beach for wandering, meeting, and lingering. Subtle bends in selected posts give the arrangement a dance-like rhythm, while changing views and shadows animate the space between the rings.
