Description

b720MN19 is an exercise between record, meaning, and the use of colour, particularly the association between glass and colour. This book is the materialisation in paper of a b720's studio project: the transformation of an anonymous building into a living project as it changes with the passing hours through the colours of the glass slats that transform the interior and exterior in intense dialogue with eachother. The project also symbolises the justification of an aesthetical solution to the need for protection from the sun.
