This week’s Looking Outwards post is a review of Howard’s Looking Outwards post from Week 3. I came across this Looking Outwards because I was so familiar with the architectural installation picture; I have seen it in real life. EPIPTHYTE lab, created by Cupkova and Craig, is an installation piece rests in Senyai restaurant. The cited project amazes me because although it looks like a simple, patterned installation, there is so much meaning and thought into it. The project is combined of 275 different slats pieced together perfectly to control the lighting and the acoustic levels of the restaurant as a whole. The software created the form of each piece and it was finally produced with laser cutter. I agree with the part about vault rising and falling perfectly to demonstrate the sensitivity of the wave like form. As a design student who had visited Senyai before, I want to add that this installation brings the audience a whole new experience; the installation immerses the audience into the space because of its meticulous form and pure white color.
