Fluorescent strings attached to the black iron frames form this contemporary installation, created by the architecture and design studio Hou de Sousa for Washington DC. The work consists of nine pieces, each of which varies in shape and size: each sculpture is composed of fluorescent strings connected to a light steel lattice. The openings between the strings produce a visual effect known as moiré, in which wavy patterns are created by the overlapping of repeated details.

As the study says:

“As visitors turn their gaze or walk about the space, patterns in the background and foreground continuously converge and delaminate, resulting in the perception that static surfaces are somehow in motion”.

The designers realized the project by dividing a box into prisms that radiate from a central point. Subsequently, they have integrated contextual features, such as paths and fountains, the result is an experience of three hundred and sixty degrees. Take a look at the team site here.
