Pneuhaus’ Walk-In Camera Offers 221 Views Without Digital Screens - Yanko Design
Inside Compound Camera No.3, the outside world becomes a patchwork of light, spread across walls soft enough to press with your hands. Rhode Island studio Pneuhaus designed the inflatable pavilion as a camera you enter, with projected views you can bring into focus by gently pushing its interior surface. After so much looking through screens, I like the idea of giving an image a little nudge rather than another swipe. The installation premiered at MODE Fest in Minneapolis from September 18 to 20, 2026. It covers more than 700 square feet and brings together 221 camera obscura cells, which project views of the surrounding environment onto its translucent inner surface. The subject matter is whatever happens to be outside, giving familiar scenery an unusually elaborate viewing room.
