Kolonihavehus by Tom Fruin
Electrochromic Glass by Sage
Kolonihavehus by Tom Fruin is an
amalgamation of boldly coloured squares in a
transparent house-shaped box on a busy street
inthe centre of Copenhagen. Built entirely from
salvaged and found plexiglas, the pieces are cut
and arranged in a mosaic structure that is
accompanied with music and light that responds
to themovements of passers by.
This remarkable glass by Sage switches from

the need for blinds or curtains. Besides altering
outdoor light levels, theion coating has insulating
properties that can reduce the energy use for
both heating and cooling the interior.
