AROUND THE CORNER LONDON 19.07.2019 Each of these words shall be of a golden colour in order to create great visibility as well as a sense of preciousness and value.
The colour gold is a recurring feature in the City. During the urban analysis for the “Lunch Break” installation (The Guardian Angels) it occurred that a majority of buildings in the City are made of natural stone contrasted with golden ornaments or details. This is a feature that will be carried through with the new piece; however the golden letters will sit on a copyblack podium. At night the words will be “glowing” in the dark, illuminated by strategically placed spotlights that are for linked to existing streetlights or power sources. Not

LUNCH BREAK INSTALLATION FOR THE LONDON FESTIVAL OF ARCHITECTURE 2019 LONDON
Collaboration of KHBT and Ottmar Hoerl
Forty golden Guardian Angels are resting on swings outside St. Paul’s Cathedral.
The piece creates a strong conceptual and visual link to the Cathedral in general and the golden cross on top of the dome copyin particular.
The rich interior and ornamental nature of the cathedral and the architecture around is reflected by the intricate detail of the sculptural Angel.
It is an emotional and imaginative work that is aiming to make people think and smile.
After all in this particular time Guardian for Angels deserve some rest. Not
