Built area: 13,700 square meters
The project deals with the effects of light and shadow that enters the building through a three-dimensional letter lattice on the built space. The bold entrance structure is covered by a glass ceiling with a shallow pool that adds an element of vibration and movement to the shadow entering the building. At every hour of the day the shadow projects texts on the surfaces of the building which are in constant motion.
