‘Vertical Canal’ Building Facade

‘Vertical Canal’ Building Facade

By Sam Biddle on June 23, 2009

Vertical Canal

Dutch architectural firm Cepezed has installed a gorgeous, shifting facade on its offices in Utrecht. A three hundred square meter metal grid contains a giant array of small plastic discs, which move with the wind and reflect the hues of the sky to create a visual experience that evokes the luminescence of a flowing waterway.
