- Description
- Foam core submission board designed for the World Trade Center Site Memorial Competition in 2003, titled “Nothing to See.” This design plan is simple, designating the space from the former World Trade Center site to become an open park. The designer hoped to utilize the construction of the surrounding buildings to reflect sunlight onto the site by using a small computer-controlled reflector on top of the primary skyscraper. The light would move across the site, highlighting certain areas throughout the day.
