Will, Montpelier

"Will" is an elegant textile sculpture that was installed by Aalto University. The sunlight created different shadows while the wind moved the textiles making it look like a living organism within the courtyard.

Table Cloth, Los Angeles

Table Cloth (by Ball-Nogues Studio) is a performance space in the courtyard of Schoenberg Hall at the UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music in Los Angeles. The project is a result of ongoing research into the reuse of temporary structures and installations. Table Cloth serves as an integrated set piece, backdrop, and seating area for student musical performance and everyday social interaction.



It is made of hundreds of individual low, coffee-style tables and three legged stools. Each of these household items is a unique product (no two are alike), fabricated specifically for the installation by Ball-Nogues.  The tables and stools link together collectively to form a “fabric” that hangs from the east wall of the courtyard. When the Table Cloth meets the ground, it unrolls to form an intimate “in the round” performance area.
