Red Cladding Tower, Paris — Glossy Panel Facade

4 October 2017 · Paris

A grid of lacquered red metal panels rises into a cloudy Paris sky, the hard corner between two faces cutting the frame with geometric precision. The glossy cladding does double duty — it holds the sky's grey-blue in reflection while the saturated red holds the eye. Bold contemporary architecture reduced to its sharpest argument: colour and edge, nothing else.
