One Central Park consists of two residential towers above a retail complex along Broadway designed by architect Jean Nouvel with artist and botanist Patrick Blanc, in the inner city suburb of Chippendale. The taller tower features a hovering cantilever heliostat with an assembly of motorised mirrors that capture sunlight and direct the rays down onto Central Park's gardens. At night, an LED art installation by conceptual artist Yann Kersalé creates a shimmering display in the sky. Central Park is an urban redevelopment of the former Kent Street Brewery.
I"ve never seen anything like that heliostat. That's pretty amazing.

ReplyDeleteVery unique building with plants. A step in the right direction.

I love buildings with plants
ReplyDeletegreat to see that the plants continue to grow on these buildings * was a beautiful collaboration of Patrick Blanc and Jean Nouvel & so many other actors in this project
