A site-specific intervention composed of interference-colored glass, aluminum, and concrete.
Translucent, 2.5-meter-tall vertical “glass fins” rise between the apartments, articulating proximity and distance. Their thin-film surfaces interact with incoming light, producing subtle chromatic shifts; as the sun moves and the day progresses, the façade continually changes in tone and intensity.
After dusk, a luminous LED band traces the building’s edge, softening its mass and transforming its silhouette into an abstract presence against the night sky.
