Bulbous, rotund and sprouted like mushrooms in the lush green of this pouring season; we beckon you to go out and take a stroll at Horniman Circle and Cross Maidan today to see what we are talking about. You’ll find dark grey upholstered benches more appropriately termed, Water Benches which are a unique solution to the common grouse echoed by ST Coleridge “Water, water, everywhere; Nor any drop to drink”. BMW Guggenheim Lab, the popular global project that involves interdisciplinary professionals and artists has just gifted Mumbai a unique urban solution that will adorn many of our public spaces.
