double moon installation by holm architecture office

danish holm architecture office has developed a ‘double moon installation’ for the nuit blanche / bring the night to light festival in new york, aiming to spark the imagination and focus attention on things that, while often taken for granted, define our daily—and nightly—lives. the proposed site was chosen because it offers a well-framed visual connection between brooklyn and manhattan. the forced perspective of the streets creates a set view corridor and the one directionality of the street assures that visitors will have the full visual impact of the installation. for a few hours on october 6, coinciding with a full moon, viewers in green point looking toward manhattan will see not one, but two moons in the sky.
