Each of the Mirador's nine mini-neighborhoods is clad in a different material, and the red-orange ground floor is the building's most chromatic gesture — a perforated metal screen in a saturated orange that reads, from the street, as the building's base note before the tower rises above it. Here the screen fills the right edge of the frame, its punched circular pattern filtering light and catching shadow behind it, while the flat orange wall beside it carries the negative of the overhang above: a deep, near-black shadow with a hard geometric edge. The building has been reduced to two elements — field and screen, the same color — and the only subject left is light. MVRDV designed the Mirador to be read at urban scale; this is what it looks like at the scale of the eye.
