The National Film School, IADT, Dun Laoghaire

By  Kirsty Brooks 2010 - 2013

Printed enamel and glass façade for the National Film School at the Institute of Art, Design and Technology in Dun Laoghaire. Developed in conjunction with ABK Ireland to create a dialogue with the architecture whilst relating to the activities of the building. The façade can be seen clearly from a distance of 15 metres but up close appears to be an abstract series of white dots fronting a concrete box. The design is taken from a composite of stills from 'Man with a Movie Camera' by Dziga Vertov and 'View from the window at Le Gras' by Joseph Nicéphore Niépce.
