Heatherwick Studio

Date
24 November 2009

Not sure we’ve ever posted the incredible work of Heatherwick Studio before. Established by Thomas Heatherwick in 1994 the London based studio has gone on to produce a number of iconic structures, none more so than the Rolling Bridge at Paddington Basin but instead I’ve decided to post Sitooterie II, a cube structure punctured by over 5000 long thin windows that project from all its surfaces and lift it off the ground. As these windows all point at the exact centre of the cube, it only takes a single light source, to send light through every tube, causing the windows to glow orange.
