3RD FROM THE SUN
Spatial installation

Neue Zahnklinik, LKH – Univ. Klinikum Graz, Austria, 2015
Architect: Ernst Giselbrecht

Solar reflectors, wall design, painting

Four specially constructed reflectors make sunlight wander temporarily over a shaded part of the inner courtyard. A white circular mark on the concrete wall of the staircase and the elevator shaft serves as a surface for projections on the outside, and enters a dialogue with the forms of the staircase inside. The title of the project refers to working with the natural circumstances on site – daylight, the seasons, and Earth`s astronomic position in space as third planet out from the Sun. The concept of the graphic pictogram is summarised in the foyer of the dental clinic.
