Permanent installation created as a functional room for healing and meditation, in response to the city’s dark winter days.
A ceiling animated light sculpture is accompanied by Seasonal Affective Disorder light boxes for heliotherapy, within a room architecturally augmented to eliminate sense of depth and time by means of complete immersion.
The room bathes in non-directional light enabled by curved walls and the elimination of corners, which minimizes shadows, and results in an even saturation of brightness and colour. The multi-tiered conical shape of the sculpture produces a hypnotic effect.
A soundtrack was created to further the healing experience, with instruments tuned to 432 hertz, a frequency believed to vibrate with the naturally resonant frequencies in our bodies.
