concept& vision

inside a vast warehouse floor, we stretch blue shrink-wrap across two or three columns in diagonal random patterns. Fluorescent tubes, attached to the columns, diffuse a dense blue light through the colored shrink wrap. Fluorescent orange lines on the floor guide visitors through the resulting labyrinth, a place for performance and design
