concept & vision

TRIANGLE STACK #2 is a site activator. Designed for the Brooklyn Museum as a collaboration with artist JR, it creates an instant public space, a 60-foot tall triangular courtyard open to the city and the sky. The installation, at Domino Park throughout 2020 and the COVID pandemic, offered an outdoor respite for the neighborhood and a background for the BLM protests

design & architecture

we assemble 18 containers without any modification - we simply use their standard connectors and the ability of the container to be stacked. Our volume holds on one side JR's large mural of the New York Chronicles, and interactive photocollage and city's portrait through its people, their image and voices

impact & significance

our STACKS are temporary large-scale installations that aim at creating sudden and powerful experience in public space. We take advantage of the system and technology to move and store containers, and propose 'dry’ assemblies in which containers are selected and simply piled up to form different configurations—for a variety of volumes and interior spaces
