Poolside at Hawthorne

MERIDIAN is a striking set of twin sculptures located in the Charlotte Douglas International Airport Terminal lobby, designed by Roney Studio and commissioned by the Arts and Science Council. These self-illuminating artworks feature bi-colored stainless-steel spheres and laser perforated tubes, utilizing programmable LED lighting to symbolize the journeys and connections made by travelers.

The sculptures not only serve as visually dynamic gateways to the terminal's atriums but also engage the community through a two-year initiative that traces individual geographical histories via illuminated pathways. By intertwining art, architecture, and community participation, MERIDIAN enhances the airport experience while highlighting Charlotte's significance as a major transit hub.
