French term
marquer les esprits et l'espace
French to English
Art/Literary
Architecture
This is the title of a presentationon a particular type of brise-soleil which is supposed to be an "architecture de tous les contrastes," as it creates plays of light and shadow, moonlight and daylight, etc etc etc
I'm thinking along the lines of "striking" and "stands out," but need a "catchy" title. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

capturing space and minds
This would be my first stab without knowing whether this is the full title - since capturing works on two levels here - almost captivating the mind and encapsulating space like a butterfly

enlighten your room and your mind
Something like 'captivate space and imagination' might work too.
