Staircase Light Installation
Marissa Brassfield — December 12, 2008 — Art & Design
Beirut-based PSLAB was recently commissioned to create a staircase light installation for the London office of DOS architects.
The offices are located in a refurbished old building, and PSLAB used the existing architecture's pedigree to help inform this unique staircase light installation. A series of old car headlights were retrofitted with incandescent lamps and mounted to the wall. The headlights are connected with red wires and light the artwork that hangs on the opposite wall.
