My proposal calls for 28 stain glass windows to be placed
on the North glass curtain wall. Each section of glass will
be approx.

as a tapestry. My design weaves itself through the entire
facade of the building relating the two floors visually together.
I wanted to make the design a strong, timeless, dynamic statement.
From the outside the window would become a focal
