Undulating Stripes

with University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA)

Project Description

The intention behind the panel is to create a textured affect through the use of lightweight undulating stripes. Seemingly creating a two-sided surface with a different visual performance on each face, appearing as an opaque and dynamic cage on the exterior while creating a glowing, translucent light filter on the interior.

From the outside, the faceted cladding of the stripes give scale and texture to any facade it is placed upon; from within, the thinness of the stripes and the packaged mechanism transmit a soft movement and striated glowing light to the interior through the slits, providing visual texture through the irregular veining of the thin stripes.

We intend to propose this panel as a package that can be mounted directly onto any facade to create a fluid and interactive system which provides a new dimension to any stoic surface/facade.
