About the Project

The Flying Leaves, built in the continuation of the WoodenWaves, is our second permanent installation at the London headquarters of the world-renowned engineering practice BuroHappold Engineering. Made from parametrically defined and laser-cut acrylic mirrors of varying sizes, the leaves create a view towards the street from the reception desks.
