Bringing buildings to light is our passion, so we were excited by the chance to take part in Shed Light at the 2012 Light in Winter festival at Federation Square in Melbourne, Australia.
Light is wonderful! It sustains us. It is abundant. It is ever-present. And it is all thanks to the sun.
Lighting installations often rely on artificial light for their effect, overlooking the power of natural light. We saw Shed Light as an opportunity to create a structure that responds to sunlight, moonlight and the light of the city. To us, recycling light is a new way to think about light pollution.
Shed Light was part of a month-long series of light installations in Federation Square coordinated by Electrolight + Federation Square as part of Melbourne’s annual Light in Winter Festival.
