英国艺术家 Camille Walala使用几何图案和大胆的颜色在布鲁克林工业城的一座建筑的正面绘制了壁画，以迎合本月的纽约设计节（NYCxDesign festival）。

这幅40多米高的壁画覆盖了一座七层建筑的正面，这座建筑以前是工厂的办公楼，现在改造用于创意的工作区、生产设施和活动场所。

这个大楼建于20世纪初，本周用来举办“WantedDesign布鲁克林设计展”，该展览为城市年度设计节的一部分。

British artist Camille Walala has painted the facade of a building in Brooklyn's Industry City with geometric patterns and bold colours, completed to coincide with this month's NYCxDesign festival.
The 40-metre-high mural covers the front of a seven-storey building, which forms part of a former industrial complex that now houses creative workspaces, production facilities and event venues.
The site, built in the early 1900s, is hosting the WantedDesign Brooklyn exhibition this week as part of the city's annual design festival.

Walala受WantedDesign的委托，使用她标志性的图形重新改造了这栋建筑的砖墙，这些图形带有20世纪80年代意大利孟菲斯设计风格并使用了“错视画”的视觉技巧。

有份声明中提到：“受到孟菲斯运动、恩德贝勒人部落和维克托•瓦萨雷里（艺术家）的影响，Walala对有趣的图形模式有着难以抑制的热情，这些图形激发了他的创作。”

墙壁正面大部分呈淡粉色，上面画着深色的对角线条纹，两边是黑白方格和与天空一样的钴蓝色。

Commissioned by WantedDesign, Walala has transformed the building's brick wall with her signature graphics, which take influences from the Memphis design movement from 1980s Italy and include trompe l'oeil visual trickery.
"Drawing on influences including the Memphis Movement, the Ndebele tribe and Victor Vasarely, Walala has an irrepressible enthusiasm for playful, graphic patterns that invoke a smile," said a statement.
Most of the facade is coloured pale pink with darker diagonal stripes, bordered by black and white squares, and a thin cobalt outline that blends with the sky.

每扇窗户都是一个L形的三维框架图案，他们由蓝色、青色、黄色和红色组成。

Walala说：“日落时，这个地方沐浴着最美丽的色彩，这启发了我对该项目色彩搭配的想法。同时，这一设计也受到了这座大楼建筑风格的启发，尤其是重复出现的窗户。”

Walala以前曾以类似的风格画过建筑物的正面，其中就有克利夫兰一座历史悠久的银行大楼和伦敦东部的一座办公楼，但是该项目却是他迄今为止最高的壁画。

An L-shaped motif that appears three-dimensional frames each of the windows, combining blue, teal, yellow and red.
"The site is bathed in the most beautiful colours at sunset, which has inspired my palette for the project," said Walala. "The design has been inspired by the architecture of the building, particularly the repetition of the windows."
The artist has previously painted the facades of buildings including a historic bank building in Cleveland and an office tower in East London in a similar style, but this is her tallest mural to date.

Walala其他早期项目包括为伦敦设计节准备的彩色充气城堡和城市里一座带有迷宫图案的反射柱画廊。

该建筑位于工业城，是布鲁克林南部16个仓库的综合体，它建于20世纪初。

工业城项目是Oui Design的一部分，它由法国大使馆文化服务处发起，因Walala来自法国才被邀请参加，尽管她很多年都一直住在伦敦。

Walala's other earlier projects include a colourful, inflatable castle for London Design Festival and a patterned labyrinth with reflective pillars for a gallery, also in the city.
Located in Industry City, the building is a complex of 16 warehouses in southern Brooklyn, and which was built in the early 1900s.
The Industry City project is part of Oui Design, an initiative of the Cultural Services of the French Embassy, to which Walala was invited because she is from France, although has been living in London for many years.

WantedDesign这一纽约组织由法国人Odile Hainaut和Claire Pijoulat（也是法国人）于2011成立，Oui Design是它的一部分，两位创始人每年五月在纽约设计节期间同时举办展览：一个在布鲁克林，另一个在曼哈顿。

在今年的曼哈顿，Walala使用本地公司VisualMagnetics提供的磁条设计了一个装置，将于2018年5月19日至22日在第11大道269号航站楼展出。

WantedDesign布鲁克林展从2018年5月17日至21日，而Walala的壁画将一直保留下来。

Oui Design forms part of WantedDesign, a New York organisation founded by Odile Hainaut and Claire Pijoulat – who are also French – in 2011. The duo put on concurrent exhibitions each May during NYCxDesign: one in Brooklyn and the other in Manhattan.
For this year's Manhattan edition, Walala has also created an installation using magnetic strips supplied by local firm Visual Magnetics, which will be on show at Terminal Stores, 269 11th Avenue, from 19 to 22 May 2018.
WantedDesign Brooklyn runs 17-21 May 2018, but Walala's mural is permanent.
