House of mirrors in the Desert



House of mirrors in the Desert
 Artist Phillip K. Smith III created Lucid Stead in Joshua Tree, California


House of mirrors in the Desert
 The installation composed of mirrored planks and LED lights mounted on a 70-year-old timber shack

House of mirrors in the Desert
 By day, the cabin appeared partially transparent thanks to mirrors reflecting 

House of mirrors in the Desert
 The humble hut sits on five acres of sand dotted with shrubs 

House of mirrors in the Desert
 At night, the cabin's windows and doors lit up with LED lights controlled by a computer that gradually changed hue

 The change of the hues is so gradual that it is hard to pinpoint the exact moment when colors turn.
