DuPont , surfacing solution provider Evans & Paul, and marketing distributor Dolan and Traynor in collaboration with Morris Sato Studio opened the DuPont ™Corian© Design Studio in New York City as a workspace where architects and designers can collaborate directly with experts to realize bold creative visions in DuPont™ Corian© solid surface material.

For their design of 5000 sq, ft. loft interior Yoshiko Sato and Michael Morris of the Morris Sato Studio employed the Japanese garden technique known as the “borrowed landscape” to abstract and reference the urban and natural environs beyond. The architects wish suggest an alternative flow of time in syncopation with the city outside that invites the visitor to complete the space through their imagination. Morris and Sato designed the 74 suspended light tubes in Glacier Ice from the Corian© Translucent Series to visually unify the various offices, hospitality, residential, educational, and healthcare vignettes organized throughout the studio and expand upon the overall spatial perspective. Conjuring an infinite “starry-sky universe,” these interactive light fixtures provide an animated array of luminous color that gently maps the visitor's movement across the space.
