The room, whose perimeter has benches, allows observers to look at the sky in such a way as though it were framed. LED lights which surround the hole can change colors to affect the viewer's perception of the sky. The design is the work of American artist James Turrell. As of 2013 over 82 skyspaces have been installed worldwide. Examples include Dividing the Light at Pomona College, the Skyspace Lech in Vorarlberg (Austria), the Live Oak Friends Meeting in Houston, Texas and at Rice University, also in Houston. == Photo gallery == == References == - [[Wiki-Architecture/General Architecture]] - [[Digital Architecture/Computational Design/Learn BIM]] - [[Urban and Planning/Master Planning]] - [[Building Construction]] - [[Urban and Planning/Urban Design and Planning]] - [[Design/Building Typologies/Commercial Architecture]] - [[Design/Contributors]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 11 - Sustainability]] - [[Urban and Planning/Urban Regeneration]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 06 - Structural Design/Section 4 - Masonry]] == External links == "Skyspace: Dividing the Light" (2007) JamesTurrell.com Skyspace section: includes photographs and locations of Turrell Skyspaces around the world
