P12 Ian Ritchie Architects - Silhouette
Team: Ian Ritchie Architects, Jane Wernick Associates and Ann Christopher, Sculptor
Producing a dynamic silhouette, the pylon exaggerates its reach to the sky, sometimes appearing as a full black lance and other times as a thin sliver, like a single brushstroke on a canvas. The pylon becomes an animated character in the landscape… part of a series or pattern… while the convex exterior skin reflects its surroundings. The landscape exists within the pylon as the pylon exists within the landscape.
