Deathbyarchitecture.com Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 The Invisible Skyline /// Skylines are symbols for the cities above which they hover. Yet, the majority of buildings in cities lie well below the pinnacles of skyscrapers. Are skylines appropriate billboards for cities when most of population lives, works, and shops in the bottom few stories? What if a skyline, while still physically there, was invisible above ten stories? How does the function of a skyline change when it can no longer be seen? What might be the functional or political purpose of hiding a skyline? How might architecture, technology, or natural phenomena hide such a large mass of buildings? What happens when a skyline becomes invisible? Participants are asked to submit concepts that hide a skyline from view, rather than physically remove it. Submissions may be conceptual, technical, and/or artistic. Submission Details /// Entries may be conceptual, technical, and/or artistic.
