Description

Meet Sexapus 2.0, an evolved version of the temporary beast who has awakened the streets around Simon-Valois square for the past year. Our concept proposes a large scale version that reaches far and wide. The larger-than-life leviathan provides colourful markings during the day that identify the space and act as visual traffic calming measures for vehicles coming and going. Using integral glow in the dark surfacing, the creature changes and comes to life at night, glowing bright blue. This giant mural is as purposeful as much as it is aesthetic, and will become a destination feature for residents and visitors alike.

The design makes every effort to increase the tree canopy, in keeping with the City's vision. To promote the lower speed limit, the vehicular road will be narrowed, but will blend into shared streets, making for a seamless transition into a completely pedestrian experience on weekends and for entertainment events.
