Info

– lacquer / dispersion paint on wall

The window panes of the main façade are virtually reflected on the opposite wall.
The surfaces formed by the reflected windows are polished and painted in brilliant high-gloss white (lacquer). The basic colour of the wall is a warm, matt white (dispersion paint).
The reflection of the windows created by light shining in usually lies on the wall like a veil, constituting a diffuse surface that is fleeting.
Here it penetrates into the wall as architectural structure: the lacquered surfaces are applied first to lie behind the paint covering the wall.
