Projection Screen, New York NY

This window shade for film projections allows captured images to be viewed from both sides - within the apartment and from the street.
The stretched surface removes the outside view for privacy and replaces it with an inside view. Between showings, it functions as an illuminated surface: it glows inside by day and outside by night.


The hinged large top panel pivots open for views outside. One small low panel is removable to access an existing radiator. The vinyl surface material is inverted with the color side facing the street and the reverse white side facing the apartment. Activated by various levels and locations of light, the colored interior changes throughout the day and night
