Lattice Detour

A wall that holds the skyline in a thousand small frames. Follow the curve, look through the clay, and take the long way around. Move the sun to watch the openings fill with light and their shadows travel across the terrace.

WASD / arrows to walk · drag to look
Touch: move on the left · look on the right

An independent study after Héctor Zamora’s 2020 Roof Garden Commission. The wall’s height and length follow The Met’s dimensions; the terrace, park and skyline are interpreted from references. Times are a lighting study.
