2006 - Jason Salavon - 10' x 40' x 1'

Amazing...above is a sample of various studies, visualizations, and process documents from a commission for the US Census Bureau. This large site-specific project was designed for the lobby of their headquarters building by SOM. All form and color are derived from US state and county information from 1790-2000. Who knew the US population could be so visual + beautiful!
