House of Air consumes six storeys of one of the city’s best-loved buildings, Curtain House. Past the dumpling restaurants and outdoor bars of Tattersalls Lane hides the building's back entrance, aka House of Air's front door. (You'll spot the big Nike neon.)
Inside, the dimly lit service stairwell has been transformed into a six-level gallery of Air Max-inspired digital art. The work of artists Ta-ku and Sam Price, it’s an impressive sensory display. Screens pulse, stretch and bubble with abstract depictions of archival legends like the Nike x atmos ‘Animal’ pack as well as monsters in the making like the and the . It’s hypnotic.
