Reactive surfaces
Transform your floors, walls, or any surface, into dynamic multimedia interactive visual
displays. Engage people with interactive floors, tables, walls, bars, counters, screens or even
windows.Created by communication.


Created by Loop pH, they create reactive surfaces often inspired by natural forms. This example works when the space becomes darker the blind becomes brighter, maintaining a balance in the light level.

This restaurant was designed by a brazillian architect; Guilherme Torres who took inspiration from clubs in New York and Paris to redesign this existing bar. The metal surrounding acts as a case for the building but the illuminated lights give a sense of warmth that continues into the interior.

Louis Vuitton stairs, Rome. This moving surface would make you feel dizzy or disorientated when trying to climb the stairs.
