Spiky Curves and Sollight

August 10th, 2009 · No Comments

Two students of Harvard’s Graduate School of Design have incorporated Sollight products into their first project as architecture professionals. Shin Cho and Stuart Helo, two 2009 Harvard grads and partners of Cho+Helo created a jagged aluminum pavilion hovering over the lawn outside the Graduate School of Design’s main building. The structure consists of 120 tetrahedra bolted to nine curvy secondary supports attached to a steel base. The tetrahedra are also equipped with SolLight solar-powered LEDs for nighttime illumination.

Speaking about the Sollight’s used in their installation, Helo said,

We love your lights! They really provide just the right kind of subtle and delicate lighting that we think makes our installation quite an elegant feature at night. Hopefully we will have the opportunity to use them again in the future. Thanks again!
