Metal Shutter Houses by Shigeru Ban in West Chelsea
This Metal Shutter Houses was designed by Japanese Designer Shigeru Ban in WestChelsea. Starchitects are all over New York, giving an extra value to new condos inManhattan. A few months ago i visted the Herzog & de Meuron and Bernard Tschumi projects on the lower east side, and they looked quite impressive.
On this building, Shigeru Ban once again innovates on the material use by incorporating motorized perforated metal shutters on its -dynamic- facade, which act as light-modulating privacy screen at the outer edge of each residence’s terrace adjacent to the double-height living rooms.
