“A totemic screen abuts the dropped ceiling, veiling the kitchen from the dining area / work space. Light falls, rather dramatically, along the screen’s surface. The table top is made of maple topped by green acrylic with an aluminum edge.”
along the blank wall, the office blocks were constructed of light gauge steel studs, the simplest of structural systems, with applied panels of varying translucencies to allow light to penetrate into the offices. clear green acrylic gave glimpses of the exterior and let light in making these small spaces much ;larger as they participated in the entire space visually. from the exterior the materials glowed under both natural light from skylights above and artificial lights at night. the glow of the boxes fills adjacent workareas with an even light 24/7.
