Sitooterie II

- The structure is a cube punctured by over 5000 long thin windows that project from all its surfaces and lift it off the ground. The cube measures 2.4 x 2.4 meters, is precision-machined from 15mm anodised aluminium and the windows are 18mm square section aluminium tubes glazed with transparent orange acrylic.
- As the long thin windows all point at the exact centre of the cube, it only takes a single light source, located at this central point, to send light through every tube, causing the windows to glow orange. A small number of them also project into the cube to form seating.
