bruce munro: ‘light shower’ at salisbury cathedral
the installation consists of 2, 000 shimmering points of light / teardrop diffusers, each set at the end of a fiber optic thread, all cascading downwards from the cathedral’s spire crossing.
Woaah looks stunning. (Also, you can tell when something was taken from designboom because there are no capitals.)
The unique windows of the Institut du Monde Arabe in Paris are reminiscent of the intricate Arabic patterns seen in many buildings — but with a twist. The windows are composed of metal eyes that dilate according to outdoor light conditions. The interior is host to a changing and complex lighting effect that layers daylight from the 30,000 apertures. Since the kinetic wall is facing the south, the building controls thermal exposure and interior lighting with a single system.
Check out the internal shots. They are breathtaking.
