ALBA DE LA FUENTE as Architects

Challenged to consider questions about the design, functionality, and utility of digital architecture and N.F.Ts, Alba De La Fuente and Tom Dixon came together to attempt a fusion of virtual architecture and lighting design .

The collection of four NFTs consists of an architectural edifice conceived as a lighting object.

Each NFT demonstrates reductive architecture and a dreamlike land and waterscape in different states of luminosity – some from the environment , some from reflections and some emitting from the structure itself .

In the perpetual search for the purest forms, we have explore the sphere, where The Orb represents a balance between minimalist architecture, materials and textures allowing for the maximum expression in digital space of the concept of light objects.
