From the team at Red Paper Heart in Brooklyn: “This project is an exploration into animated methods of transforming office space using LG’s transparent OLED screens as room dividers – it was designed in collaboration with Gensler XD and installed at Open Innovation Forum 2022 in Las Vegas.

“Transparent screens can participate spatially in ways that traditional screens cannot, so we created a system of animated glass room dividers. Glass room dividers let sunlight through and keep spaces feeling open but these OLED animations add another dimension of being able to change the glass patterns.

“We also reinterpreted the classic reception desk flower vase as a digital object with both beauty and utility in order to imagine the possibilities for transparent OLEDs. Four screens envelop an iridescent glass vase, and the screens provide digital flower petals. Not only can the petals create mesmerizing animations, but they also contain schedule information with each petal representing an upcoming office calendar event.

“This semi-permanent project is currently on tour, capable of being set up in a variety of ways. Ultimately it serves as an expression of LG’s commitment to keep exploring the new and exciting possibilities for real-world application of their transparent OLEDs.”
