The Periscope House is crafted by architects Xaveer Claerhout, Barbara Van Biervliet and artist Adriaan Claerhout from Metamorphic Art Studio.
This creation explores and combines architecture with periscope structures as a gravity battery. By constructing below ground level, the Periscope House banishes the dreary basement ambiance, creating a gentle microclimate. The design features vertically moving mirrored walls at a perfect 45-degree angle, unveiling visual and spatial possibilities. Solar-powered servo engines raise the mirrors during the day, offering captivating views. This eco-conscious architectural creation merges artistry, sustainability, and metamorphosis, shaping a transformative world where physical and virtual realms converge.
