Architectural Glass Art installation
Architectural Glass Art Installation for these unconventional series of glass doors, walls and glass screens.
Art in Architecture, a progressional project ‘Horizon Line Crescendo’, a gold leafed horizon line on the walls and a series of related full height glass doors and screens ‘exploring the labyrinth’, its healing philosophy and its unwinding relationship to the building’s inner path, from the main entrance foyer through to key areas of a recently completed care homes headquarters.
These elements were conjoined by a horizon line, which develops to a counterpoint in the most complex multi-layered section. The glass qualities that establish the concept also provide the required privacy and light qualities to separate the different areas, whilst creating a visual labyrinth within a labyrinth, a journey of discovery and a stimulus to the enquiring mind.
