Rue Semmuse Perspective
Rory grew quite attached to this 1:1 model of my facade. The shutter system provides shade from the sun in daytime, and provides a translucent surface with which to project films onto at night. The films can be viewed from both inside and outside the laundry.
The customers doing their ironing in the cafe can see into the cinema and watch the film. This detail uses a laundry basket as a shutter for the windows providing apertures from ironing cafe to cinema. This stops excess light from infiltrating the cinema. The shutter basket folds down to hold dry clothes, and the ironing board folds down over basket for ease of ironing. The section also highlights the bean bag seating in the cinema which are made from lost socks.
C u on September…:)
Exploring projections onto clothes. Can I use drying clothes as a cinema screen?
