#ArchitectureFriday | Rockaway! by Katarina Grosse was commissioned in response to Hurricane Sandy. Following the tragic event in 2012, Grosse transformed this abandoned Army aquatics facility, gutted by the hurricane, into a place of surreal beauty. fal.cn/4hYy

‘I wanted a very artificial colour in relationship to the nature, the water, and the sand...red felt the most visual and hostile, even.'

Katharina Grosse’s beach house located in Fort Tilden is meant to give the effect of a wave washing over the building. The bright colours bleed off the architecture into the shore.
