Exhibited at the Designers’ Saturday 2012 in Langenthal, Switzerland and at the BAU 2013 in Munich, Germany, the experimental installation “Abstraction” transforms shadows and lights into predefined pixels. Created by architects Peter Thomas Hornung of Hornung and Jacobi Architecture and Axel Schenke, their patented system uses the given material properties of Corian and assigned it with so far unknown qualities. More images and architects’ description after the break.
In this project, Corian becomes interactive and integrates the people as part of the installation itself. The exhibition space was dimmed while the visitors’ route was managed to pass the “Abstraction-Wall” to offer the spectators a unique experience.
