도시의 다양한 움직임을 담기 위해 먼저 도시를 생성하는 인공적인 지형을 거대한 병원 주차장 파사드에 그리다. 그리고 다시 이 지도, 이미지는 주변과 동기화 되며 움직인다. (사실 움직이지 않는다. 관찰자의 시점에 따라 카드섹션의 양면처럼 다른 이미지가 보여질 뿐) 보행, 자전거, 자동차의 각기 다른 속도 이번방향에 따라 -관찰자의 시점에- 움직이는 듯한 시퀀스를 생성하는 -속도에 반응하는- 파사드 디자인은 병원 주차장 지역을 알리는 거대한 이정표로 거대한 인터렉티브 환경을 조성한다. 7,000여개의 앵글 판넬은 각각 18개의 상이한 크기 및 각도로 제작, (국자형태로 하단부 직사각형은 가로 300mm, 세로 600mm이며 긴 막대는 1000mm 로 구성된다.) 서측과 동측은 각각 딥블루 컬러와 골든 엘로우 컬러로 채색 된다. 인터렉티브 파사드는 구현방식, 호흡 방식에 따라 여러가지 타입으로 표현된다. 바람에 흩날리거나, 액티브 에너지를 활용 움직이거나 아니면 지금처럼 시점에 따라 변화하는 방식을 택하게 된다. 하지만 중요한 점은 일반향적인 의사소통이 아니라 쌍방간의 교류를 통해 구현되는 디자인의 지향점에 구축의도가 있어야 한다는 점이다.

This project began with an interest in challenging the typical notion of the parking structure as an unappreciated infrastructural typology by transforming the new Eskenazi Hospital parking structure into a binary, synthetic terrain. During the design process, an interest in camouflage evolved into an approach that would create a very large dynamic, interactive element for the City. Rather than an actively kinetic approach, with all of the inevitable maintenance and longevity concerns that accompany those types of project, we were instead working towards an approach that capitalizes on the fact that most viewers would, themselves, be moving on bicycles or in automobiles. Thus, the design ultimately became something that offers a degree a variability of color and form as one passes by the project. The awareness of this, interestingly enough, occurs whether someone is directly watching or even just seeing it out of their periphery of vision

The effect of a field of 7,000 angled metal panels in conjunction with an articulated east/west color strategy creates a dynamic façade system that offers observers a unique visual experience depending on their vantage point and the pace at which they are moving through the site. In this way, pedestrians and slow moving vehicles within close proximity to the hospital will experience a noticeable, dappled shift in color and transparency as they move across the hospital grounds, while motorists driving along W. Michigan Street will experience a faster, gradient color shift which changes depending on their direction of travel.
To facilitate the effect, a total of 18 different panels sizes/angles are used throughout. They range from 300mm tall x 600mm long to 300mm tall x 1m long. There approximately 7,000 of these panels. The color scheme is quite simple as the west side received a deep blue color, while the east side receives a golden yellow color. The angles, alone, create the illusion of different hues.
