Kaleidoscope at Battery Park
We have some fun construction photos from a new playground design for the Battery Park City Day Nursery. Koko was commissioned to design a playground with sound barrier for the 333 Rector Place Condominium. Our solution was a structural roof scape filled with multicolored skylights.
The suspended clouds are cut from acoustically absorbing aluminum foam. We can't wait to see the colored light and cloud shadows casting spells on the kids below.
