The Farnsworth Curtain takes its cue from Mies van der Rohe
-
- The curtain is composed of 2 separate layers. The outer layer is the supporting structure for the infrared sensors and the LEDs. The inner layer forms the screen upon which the LEDs project light. When an object interrupts the infrared beams, the corresponding LED lights dim, causing a dark shape to emerge on the inner layer of the curtain.

Through the use of electronic noise cancellation technology and sound absorbing materials, the enclosed space will be almost silent, in contrast to the main space. Shadows will seemingly float by, the busier the outside the more hypnotic the experience.
