a loop it harks back to the feel of a space saucer, while also recalling the 'maternal womb' with its continuous line,
extruded and tensed in section to form tables, benches and other horizontal surfaces.
these sinuous lines wrap around, creating optical plays of light born in centrifugal bursts.
the harmony of the project is manifest in the lightness of the interiors, created by the unusual cross-sectional
configuration of the space; and by the reinterpretation of the futuristic ethos embodied in the fantastical architectures
of the seventies, which utterly refused to be drawn into the traditional dialectic of horizontal-vertical space,
preferring a 'psychological' dimension.
