An Installation of Falling Rain Which Visitors Walk Through Without Getting Wet

London. An installation of falling rain, which visitors walk through without getting wet, has become the most popular attraction in Barbican history, with 12-hour queues to get in.

The Rain Room in the Barbican’s Curve Gallery stayed open until 1am on Saturday and finally closed at midnight after huge public interest led organisers to extend opening hours.

In five months, more than 77,000 people have entered the room, where sensors detect the presence of visitors and respond by stopping the water falling to keep them dry.

The work makes use of 2,000 litres of water. It is nominated for the Design Museum’s Designs of the Year awards.

It was developed by Hannes Koch, Florian Ortkrass and Stuart Wood, who met at the Royal College of Art and work as random International.
