View from ground level showing the play on light between the dual steel ribbons and the red-painted corrugated aluminum rain-screen which acts as a backdrop. Each ribbon curve combines front and bottom surfaces in brushed stainless steel, while the back and top surfaces are made of textured aluminium coated with “hot-rod red” paint. The Petersen Museum.
