THE NEON PROJECTCOLUMBIA UNIVERSITY
GSAPP | SPRING 201210 APRIL 2012 DESIGN
The Neon Project is designed as a public mega-furniture installation which invites users to interact with each Neon Pod by entering into one and enjoying a relaxing moment within the hyper pace of New York City and the high energy of the End of Year Show. Each Neon Pod measures approximately 13 feet in diameter and 6 feet tall and can accommodate a group of people in its woven hammocks. Each Neon Pod is made from digitally fabricated
ribs of recycled HDPE plastic woven together with flexible neon cord. The cord which spans the gap between each HDPE rib creates a vertical resting space for the users of the
Neon Pod. Each wedge can contain one body and multiple wedges can be combined to create various arrangements. We propose to install the Neon Project on the north lawn
of Avery Hall as the primary location with potential wedge offspring populating the terrace between Avery Hall and Fayerweather.
