131 West 33rd, NYC, NY
A renovation of an existing 1950’s building entrance lobby featured a new ceiling with a 60-foot long luminous vault constructed of stretched polyethylene over a metal frame. The light-filled structure emanates even levels of light 24-hours a day and 7-days a week. Inspired by the unique quality of northern light on a cloudy day, the new design eliminates reflections and glare, creating a peaceful sanctuary from the overcrowded and noisy streets near New York's Pennsylvania Station.
