Description of project by Sergio Sebastián
Serrano Street in Madrid will be open Christmas lights this year with an original proposal that pays tribute to the textile trade. 'Bufandas, 'the work of architect Sergio Sebastián, is spinning different layers of luminous fabric along one and a half kilometer to recreate the classic tartan pattern of the world of tailoring that marks the character of this main street.
As usual in the designs of this architect, which also illuminates the central street of Preciados, Fuencarral or Plaza de Chueca there is a marked interest in redefining the urban space and turning it into a social event.
For this, the proposal starts with the geometry of the colors, playing with the density, the superposition, the full and the empty, generating effects and infinite possibilities of visualization.
Based on classic tartan pattern of wool wooven, scarves explores the effects of visual superposition of colors, lines, and surfaces, compounding a new atmosphere for this main commercial street
