Silver Towers is a luxury residential complex covering an entire city block on Manhattan’s Westside at 42nd Street. Two towers flank a central illuminated courtyard designed to elicit qualities of landscape and sky. Inspired by the ways sunlight filters through foliage, the iconic glass and perforated metal wall projects a vine pattern that reflects natural light by day and creates a tranquil urban space to draw residents in at night. Lighting for the lobbies of each tower was designed to complement the minimalist, urban design.
