LED Linear™, Architectural FX and Arup electrify the luminous limbs of atmos’s inhabitable tree for the City of London Festival.
Its exuberant design mutates the wonder of natural trees with a structure that seek to nourish all the senses – celebrating both the geometric structures of nature, and the social structures of cities.
It previewed in Paternoster Square before commencing a weekly journey that stopped at Devonshire Square, the Gherkin, and Finsbury Avenue Square. By day it offered shade from the summer sun; by night it pulsed with an internal electric rhythm, its luminous veins illuminating the path to a constellation of lights in its limbs.
LED Linear™, Architectural FX and Arup sponsored all the lighting, equipment and brainpower that brought the Mobile Orchard to life.
