Transoceanic Collaboration

This fabric chandelier was recently installed over the information desk at Dublin International Airport's new Terminal 2. A construction detail: Any internal structure would have been visible, so we eliminated all vertical "spreaders", and patterned the fabric to show no wrinkles, with only gravity to stretch the fabric. Transformit (in Maine) made the fabric , Downer (in Dublin) made the frame and did the installation.

Client: Failte Ireland Tourist Information Office
