Witnessing the guests' initial reaction upon entering and observing how the design demonstrably alters their behavior, disconnecting them from the outside world and evoking their curiosity in all senses, is truly captivating. It embodies originality and powerfully showcases the transformative potential of architecture on human behavior and physical experience. Advanced 3D technology and software were used to achieve this vision, moving across the different computational programs to capture the desired organic form. Drawing parallels with the natural world, we then incorporated creases and textures reminiscent of weathering into the design. Then the latest production methods were employed to translate this from a digital 3D model to reality, bridging the gap between the digital and physical realm. Through constant communication and a deep understanding of material limitations, we prioritized a smooth transition from design to construction. By anticipating challenges, we minimized the need for major adjustments on-site.
