Interior
images indicate that the exterior color is carried through
selectively, specifically around the elevator shaft and other
"public" surfaces. Otherwise the palette is subdued
and the design is minimal, with butt-glazed glass at the light
well allowing a view of the thin slabs, unencumbered by railings.
In Cirque du Soleil's attempt to transform its surroundings,
these residences will definitely contribute, for the better.
The architects intended the boxes hung off the facade as a
symbol of the tension between the individual and the collective,
a gesture that gives a semblance of individual expression
to the units that's grounded in Cirque du Soleil's expressive
creativity. |
