Lobby of the William Barton Rogers Building 7
With Inflatables, a network of silver nylon balloons in the lobby of the William Barton Rogers Building exposes a set of invisible forces that shapes our experience of the indoors. Gusts from air handlers, drafts from doorways, heat from light bulbs and the motions of passersby are given visual resonance in the undulations of the project’s shimmering surface.
