Every evening, as dusk falls, the facade of VERBUND’s headquarters is plunged into yellow fog, transforming the square and the building into a stage of fog, light and wind.
Eliasson views the fog as a tool with which to turn spatial connections and distances into a tangible experience. He chose the colour yellow because of its particularly good visibility in the dark. Yellow fog thematises the transition from day into night and subtly draws the observer’s attention to the changes in the pace of the day.
