A series of modular masonry elements, made of pre-cast white concrete with inset glass blocks, have been designed to create large screen walls on the external façades of a private villa in the Côte d’Azur.
Inspired by the ceilings of the Dolmabahçe Palace in Istanbul, the hexagonal apertures are tapered to modulate and diffuse the strong sunlight as it illuminates the interior spaces. This delicate, lace-like, honeycomb structure will animate the internal spaces with shifting plays of light and shadow.
The system was developed in close collaboration with Sarl Rouvière, a company specialising in fine pre-cast concrete elements. Their dedication to craftsmanship has been an essential contribution to the creation of this unique façade system.
Our work will be shown alongside the creations of over 70 other artists, designers, and architects, from 13th to 17th of April 2011 at:
Brioni Palazzo
Via Gesu 2A
20121 Milan
Opening times: 10:00-19:00
