Project background:

• San Francisco based artist Ned Kahn was appointed through a competitive selection process to create an eight storey, 5000 square metre kinetic façade.Inside the car park, patterns of light and shadow project onto the walls and floor as sunlight passes through the façade.The design also provides practical environmental benefits such as shade and natural ventilation. This large-scale work creates a mesmerising impression for passengers emerging from the terminal, arriving by car, or on the elevated Airtrain platform.

Fabrication challenges:  Meet ventilation codes and solid enough to obscure the car park behind.
