What is this? No, it's not a cheese grater ....
It's one of these. None the wiser?
Well, it's a large metallic panel, about 2 feet square.
All the little cut-out circles are placed at different angles.

A giant picture. Of clouds.
This is the outside covering to a new car park (parkade) where I work.
How cool is that?
Much better than giant slabs of grey concrete.
The clouds "move" as you move and the angles change.
Metallic skies.
Seriously nifty. I want one of those. Wow. Was this on "Skywatch Friday"? Did I miss it? It's great. Etc., etc., ad infinitum.

Any chance you could tell exactly where this is, I'm an Architect looking for a similar product.
ReplyDeleteHi Terri - the building is at SAIT - Southern Alberta Institute of Technology in Calgary. No idea who designed or commissioned it but I guess contact our Facilities Management department for more details.
