"Message from the sky" mockup

We created a mockup of the skylight, which is the key element of "Message from the Sky."
The scale is a whopping 1/3!
As intended, I was able to confirm that the sky was visible in a continuous line.

Message from the Sky 2

The mockup we made was too big to carry outside, so we ended up disassembling it a little and reassembling it outside. We put it on a chair and looked at it from underneath.

Message from the Sky 3

The sky repeats beautifully as planned.
We also confirmed that the pattern appears on the wall.
The circular holes are repetitive, but they are not part of the design, they are just peepholes in the mock-up.
I get excited when I imagine the actual space.
