Shifting Sands

Via Arch Daily, a new project from Work AC, who brought us the fabulous PS1 installation 'Public Farm' two years back, take on a more functional building at the Brooklyn Navy Yard: "The stripped facade is comprised of low-cost standing seam metal panels in a variety of colors. The color palette is taken from the varied hues of the surrounding buildings as a way to tie this contemporary structure with the existing context. The form, a long rectangle with the top level shifted off center, allows space for a shared green terrace on the back side of the building while the protruding side makes the protected entry condition."
