What an incredible space to learn and be inspired… A playground of color!
“With a striking and modern white exterior, the school features frameless rainbow windows in communal spaces like hallways while leaving the glass in classrooms colourless. The result is corridors full of dazzling, multi-coloured light that is constantly changing as the sun moves during the school day.”

Jessica Eaton: Cube, Color, Cosmos
We came across Canadian photographer, Jessica Eaton’s work a while back when she created an art installation, using LEE Filters gel samples as her medium! You can see it HERE
Jessica was recently awarded the photography prize at the 2012 Hyères International Festival of Fashion and Photography for her series Cubes for Albers and LeWitt in which she uses her camera to create color invisible to the naked eye.
Through multiple exposures the colour hues in each image have been made by exposing the film to the additive primaries of red, green and blue. The reflective value of the cubes controls the value or lightness of that hue, and the black is utilised as a type of reflective mask, holding potential on the film for other exposures.” Read more here
“Demand for lighting fixtures in the U.S. will increase 7.5 percent annually to $25.3 billion in 2016, recovering from the declines of the 2006-2011 period, according to a new industry study…. Demand will also benefit from the greater use of lighting fixtures that are specifically designed for energy-efficient light sources such as LEDs.”

The Infinity Room by Yayoi Kusama
Showing at Tate Modern in London from February 9 to June 5, 2012, the Infinity Mirror Room is filled with constantly shifting LED lights and infinite fractal mirrors, imparting the feeling of floating in space. Created by Kusama, an 82-year-old woman who has spent most of the last forty years of her life as a voluntarily patient in a psychiatric hospital.

“The goal is to draw from an untapped market while making Broadway more relevant to Hispanic families and their lifestyles. An objective is to work with and support Hispanic media outlets in their coverage of Broadway to increase awareness and awaken a desire to attend shows. The initiative will include education on all things Broadway such as how to buy Broadway tickets, how to find out what’s playing, who’s on stage, and more. For career development, Viva Broadway will create Broadway Speakers Bureaus and workshops in order to expand awareness of jobs in the theatre to high schools and colleges.”- via
