Using a massive mirror and some creative angles, Argentine artist Leandro Erlich has recreated the facade of a Victorian terraced house destroyed during World War II as a piece of interactive art on a stretch of Ashwin Street in Dalston. The installation, which places the building's facade on the ground, and reflects that image to a near perfect perspective, allows visitors to hang from windows and climb the walls of the house without actually stepping off the ground. According to an artist's statement in the New York Times, a team that specializes in huge mirrors was brought in from Belgium to collaborate on the project.

Dalston House is presented by the Barbican Gallery as part of the London Festival of Architecture, and will be open through August 4. Find info on readings, screenings, and various events at online at the Barbican. Early arrival is suggested.
