An interesting feature that’s not immediately noticeable: The small “segments of time” at the bottom of the walls reflecting the rhythm of the window mullions above.

How it reflects your practice as a whole: A poetic approach to design through navigation between past and future.

One song that captures its essence: “Offering” in “Passages” composed by Philip Glass and Ravi Shankar.
