PHASE 2 - AN OBSERVING SPACE
CONCEPT - TIME AND LIGHT
Phase 3 is a further exploration on light and concrete formwork. This is
a natural light capture device inspired by an analemmatic sundial.
In this project, tie of concrete formwork is part of the important design
element which is being used as a guide to indicate time.

Formwork Ties
As sunlight cast into each units, it lights up the ties, casting shadows on
the concrete wall. These ties are deliberately positioned such that the
number of ties that casted shadows changed hourly, indicating the
elapse of time.
