Sky ceiling LED panel APERTURE ™

Aperture ™ SkyCeiling features circular designs and a unique mechanical design Aperture SkyCeilings™ uniquely modify our perception of customary planar relationships and thereby boost the spatial plausibility of interior skies to a newly heightened level of illusion. Gridless Illusion For starters, Aperture’s internal structure forgoes the familiar support grid, usually positioned between SkyTiles (image panels), in favor of an unobstructed view of the entire circular or elliptical opening. The absence of a grid creates ambiguity for the mind as to whether or not a surface (the SkyTile) actually exists, thereby supporting perception of deep space. The Interstice Second, Aperture separates the perimeter frame from the non-reflective SkyTile surface, creating a vacant interstice. (The interstice is the empty space between the actual layers.) When the sky image (Open Sky Composition) is viewed from any off-center perspective, it appears as a thin, crescent shaped gap. However, when viewed standing directly underneath, Aperture’s vacant interstice, subtly visible by virtue of our binocular vision, confounds the viewer’s ability to recognize and locate a precise distance to the non- reflective SkyTile surface, thereby stacking the contextual cues assimilated in favor of an alternate—and now more plausible—perception of deep open sky.
