Corten and screens

Prickly pear and cacti in a long corten planter

Every planter on the roof was made to measure in corten steel — circular, oval, square, long — and the screens were cut from sheet to a palm-frond pattern drawn for this project. Both came from the same hand, Massimo Cecconi’s. The steel was left to weather.
