In Praise of Light and Shadows

We can’t leave off Andreas Stavropoulos’s mobile design studio for San Francisco–based design firm XS|LA, of course. Being solar-powered, it is of course intimately connected to the landscape and to the movement of light. The self-contained setup allows him to  Pons + Huot. Although not built into the land, the offices of Pons + Huot hold an unexpected interior landscape that is naturally lit all day with a filtered light that really is like being in a forest. Where there is electric lighting, it’s whimsical and adds to the magical feeling of the place.
