3D and 2D animations allowing the deployment of digital northern lights and mechanical billboards.
The concept of this architectural projection highlights the building's glass cladding particularly well, playing cleverly with its properties of transparency and reflection. Thanks to carefully designed 3D and 2D animations, light interacts with the glass surface, creating dynamic and captivating illusions. These animations give the striking impression that the cladding's thousands of glass slats are moving, vibrating under the effect of these light projections. Throughout the sequences, digital aurora borealis unfold fluidly, blending ethereal colors and organic movements, while mechanical display panels come to life, reminiscent of gears in perpetual motion. The entire display creates a visual choreography that amplifies the architectural structure while captivating the spectator with its beauty and technical precision.
