We are excited to participate in PARK(ing) Day as part of Alleyways Alive tonight in San Francisco! Our Hygro Rays installation manifests the interplay between relative humidity and materiality. Wood grain orientation, shape, size and wood species all impact how humidity causes the wood to change form over time. Come and check out how this invisible force transforms material and brings life to the alleyway. The event runs from 7pm – 10pm tonight (Sept 20th) at Fern Alley (Between Polk and Larkin).

The green roof atop Heartline’s timber office building features drifts of plant material to create a pattern similar to that of wood grain. Where the roof slopes, creating areas of greater soil volume, large perennials and shrubs are planted to give more seasonal color. In contrast, drifts of river cobble and sedums create patterns in the shallowest portions of the roof. Set within the planted wood grain are outdoor gathering spaces for the office building’s users. Learn more about the landscape design—from rooftop amenities to the public courtyard below—at this transit-oriented development in Portland’s Pearl District in our latest ideas post: “The Heartwood and the Seedling: Portland’s Pearl District Grows More Public Realm.” (clickable link in bio) 📷: @k7scott
