“People meander through this forest, as if lured by the charm of the light. Light and people interact with one another, its existence defining the transition of the other”
– Sou Fujimoto
Sou Fujimoto Installs a "Forest of Light" for COS at 2016 Salone del Mobile. Photography by Riccardo Dubitante. A collaboration of the Swedish fashion retailer COS and Japanese architect Sou Fujimoto on 2016 Salone del Mobile, in Milan.
With fog and specially-composed sounds creating an immersive environment, mirrored walls imagine an infinite landscape where the conical spotlights become abstracted trees, joining together to form a shifting forest of light.
"In this installation for COS, I envisage to make a forest of light. A forest which consists of countless light cones made from spotlights above." said Fujimoto.
