Sideways Elevation Contours
Animation of the shift from a sideways to aerial perspective of 3-D elevation contours in the City of London.
A site-specific design for the Two Sigma London office, which visualizes the elevation contours of the neighborhood as though they were visible through the wall upon which the graphic is mounted. (The variation in terrain is, of course, exaggerated.)
While a faithful representation of the underlying data, the topographic visualization is unusable for navigation when viewed from the side; instead, it forms a new terrain of its own.
