Honor Award Winner

Mirage

Katie Paterson, Zeller & Moye, HGA & OLIN

Award Year / 2024

Entry Category / General Design

Location / Cupertino, California

Set within a small park facing Apple Park and the Apple Park Visitor Center, the curved walls composed of glass columns meander through the grid of olive trees like an aura. Mirage blends art, architecture, science and nature.

Social and connective, it creates an unexpected gathering place. The practice of watching light fall through the columns is a form of meditation. Interacting with the sculpture creates connections to nature, deep time and the beyond. Mirage provides a moment of pause, inviting visitors to slow down, and tune into the immensity and preciousness of our planet.
