May - September Installation by Urbana

Rob Ley - an artist and architect, founded Urbana Studio to engage innovative materials and formal approaches in developing environments that respond physically to human in-habitation and experience. The studio’s work often includes the fusing of highly textural forms with both natural and controlled light. Rob Ley’s latest work was transforming the new Eskenazi Hospital parking structure into an interactive, synthetic terrain. A field of 7,000 angled metal panels in conjunction with an articulated east/west color strategy creates a dynamic façade system that offers observers a unique visual experience depending on their vantage point and the pace at which they are moving through the site.
