Overview

Transparent LED on the glass of a flagship store: clear by day, a moving ribbon of silk light on a snowy evening.

A storefront has two jobs: show the room inside and catch people outside. Transparent LED does both. Fine LED strips sit behind the glazing, so by day the store reads through the glass. On a winter evening, a ribbon of silk light flows across the facade as snow falls past it, and the shop floor stays visible behind. The panels follow the mullion grid.
