Shingle Wall is 1300 cm (43 ft) wide, 45 cm (18 in) thick, between 150 and 280 cm (5 and 9 ft) high from terrace. It is elevated 100 cm (39 in) above the sidewalk.
The wall is made of shingles of different colors, materials, and sizes placed into eleven wire-and-gauze-framed compartments. The contours made by the shingles in the compartments are irregular, echoing the architectural diversity of surrounding structures reflected in the glass panels of the Central Plaza building.
