The site of this eleven story high residential development project with retail space on the ground floor will be located on East 23rd St, NY. The glass façade incorporates mirrors at varying angles that bring extra light deep into the spaces inside as well as providing an opportunity to view the street outside, from within, connecting the two worlds. This threshold of translucency incorporates glass, mirror and acrylic panels that change color depending on the angle of the sun. The intensity and color of the light inside the apartments vary through out the day creating a unique experience of living in this urban setting.
