由Van Alen Institute和Flatiron/23街合作商业改善区(BID)主办的第五届Flatiron公共广场设计大赛的冠军奖项,Cadena工作室的特定场地装置 "Happy"已经向公众开放。项目成为场地的核心,也是这个纽约市繁荣街区的一个高知名度的地标。
Studio Cadena’s site-specific installation Happy, the winner of the fifth annual Flatiron Public Plaza Design Competition hosted by the Van Alen Institute and the Flatiron/23rd Street Partnership Business Improvement District (BID), has opened to the public. Happy is the centerpiece of the annual program and a highly visible landmark in this thriving New York City neighborhood.
"在节日里,我们都希望彼此幸福。装置将这种美好的祝愿身体力行地体现给所有到访的人。"Cadena工作室的创始人和负责人Benjamin Cadena说:"在我们原本黯淡的社会和政治背景下,它渴望在城市中开辟一个更积极的小空间,它在寒冷的冬季提供了一个温暖的怀抱。"
“We all wish each other happiness during the holidays. This installation physically manifests this well wishing to all who visit Flatiron,” says Benjamin Cadena, Founder and Principal of Studio Cadena. “In our otherwise bleak social and political context, it aspires to carve a small and more positive space in the city—it offers a warm embrace during the cold winter months.”
项目是23块造型柔和的透明乙烯基屏风,从一个开放的框架中垂下,在其中刻画出一个亲密的集体空间。其丰富的色彩表面可以在远处十分引人注目,而近距离则通过为周围环境注入丰富饱和的光芒来过滤内外的景色。在微风中轻轻摇曳,在秋末冬初的弱光下,它一边闪烁反光,一边投下长长的彩影。Happy是一个简单的装置,让你驻足、好奇,最重要的是,可以让人微笑。
Happy features 23 softly shaped transparent vinyl screens that drape down from an open frame to inscribe an intimate collective space within. Its rich colored surface projects a highly visible and memorable figure from a distance, and up close, filters views inside and out by infusing the surrounding context in a rich saturated glow. Gently swaying in the breeze, it shimmers and reflects while it casts long colored shadows in the low light of late fall and early winter. Happy is a simple device to make you stop, wonder, and most importantly, smile.
Cadena事务所的设计从九家公司的提案中脱颖而出。项目于2018年11月19日至2019年1月在Flatiron North公共广场展出,该广场位于百老汇、第五大道和23街的交叉口。
Studio Cadena’s design was selected from among nine proposals by firms including Agency—Agency; Brandt : Haferd; MODU; N H M D; Office III; P.R.O. and Wolfgand & Hite. Happy will be on view from November 19, 2018 through January 2019 at the Flatiron North Public Plaza, located at the intersection of Broadway, Fifth Avenue, and 23rd Street.
