2016年春季，欧洲议会（EP）委托设计了一个临时创意街道家具和绿化设施，该设施将安装在连接布鲁塞尔议会校园不同建筑的主干道Solidarność1980滨海大道上。
In spring 2016, the European Parliament (EP) commissioned a design for temporary creative street furniture and greenery that would be installed on the Esplanade Solidarność 1980, the main thoroughfare that links the different buildings of the Parliament campus in Brussels.
然而，建筑师们并没有设计临时家具，而是建议EP投资100把椅子、10张桌子和50株植物。而实际的设计项目则是在一年的时间里安排和测试这些坚固而可持续的物体，使其处于各种形态。
With Constellations, instead of designing temporary furniture, the architects however proposed the EP to invest in a set of 100 chairs, 10 tables and 50 plants. While the actual design project consisted of arranging and testing these solid and sustainable objects during one year in various configurations.
一组圆圈，一条长线，几个小的星团，一系列的星星：在一年中，为了避免任何形式的预定义，椅子、桌子和植物以各种不同的方式重新排列，安装在滨海广场的不同部分和部分。他们把广阔的空间变成了一场色彩斑斓的戏，桌椅和使用桌椅的人成为演员。滨海广场成为一个欢乐、以人为本、友好的公共空间，但同时也是一个研究对象，在这里可以观察和探索公众与家具及其所属空间的不同互动方式。
A group of circles, a long line, several small clusters, a series of stars : throughout one year, the chairs, tables and plants, in a variety of colours in order to avoid any form of pre-definition, are re-arranged in various ways and installed in different parts and sections of the Esplanade. They turn the vast space into a scene for a colourful play in which the chairs and tables and the people using them become the actors. The Esplanade becomes a convivial, people-oriented and friendly public space, but at the same time also an object of study in which the different ways the public interacts with the furniture and with the space of which it is part can be observed and explored.
