How can one feel the time passing? What can make it possible to understand the time passing in a closure? How can create a space to celebrate the time beside the calmness? And there was evening and there was morning, one day. So, the light was let to entre through the holes on the ceiling with no power for man to stop it. So, the sky was let to entre from the west wall through the Southern Cross with no power for the man to stop it. The light could dance on the floor, on the walls. The holes were torches, moving the dancing light in the space. The time was let be inside the calmness of the space. How can create a set of volumes as a poem? How can it be enigmatic so letting the audience discover it? Is it by changing the point of the views? So, let the point of the views be so different toward the building. It shall be discovered.The design was based on simple volumes being in interconnection with each other. Sharp, neat and clean lines were used to gain the opportunity of the simplicity. In the end, a sharp cut let the time/light be crowned as the main element of the whole design. So, let it be a Grey Cut.
