'Contemporary Architecture' by realites:united: A hybrid of a clock and a lamp
“Contemporary Architecture” presents an minimalist installation by the Berlin-based architects and artists of realities:united. Two digits of 7-segment display — formed by using industrial fluorescent tubes — are suspended from the ceiling. The installation is light sign, information carrier, and light source at the same time.
The installation is based on a research in the aesthetic potential of “anyhow-technolgies”, technologies and systems which are regarded to be “inevitable” for architecture. realities:united wants to merge these systems and offer a new view.
“Contemporary Architecture” is one of the nominated projects of the DMY Award, at the DMY festival in Berlin this week.
