A client is proposing to hang an art mesh off the façade of a parking garage and than use it to project images, advertising, etc? Has anyone had experience using this?

Is that a projection surface or an LED image mesh device like on the Miami Heat arena?

These LED tech products are fascinating.

I would hope it would be like that on the Miami Heat Arena, I know the architect on that building, not one who shares, however now that I think about it, I also who the specwriter, maybe I'll reach out to him, he also is not one to share. This is for a highrise multi-use project.

Take a look at the San Jose airport parking garage. It's fantastic:

I was working with GKD on the UCI Hospital tower when they introduced it.

I tried to get another Architect to put it on a tower in Istanbul, but I think it might have been too flashy.
