SAILS
The work of Frank Gehry followed de-constructivism. Three projects
particularly stood out to take the form of sails although not intentional.
The most prominent, the Foundation Louis Vuitton, resembles a cloud
of glass made up of twelve sails, creating a sense of movement and
allowing the surrounding environment to reflect, changing in the
light.
Sails would be a nod to historic maritime travel, creating a sense of
movement on the Square Tower, especially in its exposed state.
