The main focus of this project was to create  a space where views could be enjoyed fully without having any type of interruption. This was done by separating the circulation and the viewing area, in a fashion that allows for uninterrupted views of the site, and nearby places. The differentiation between private and public spaces is done by the amount of light that hits these spaces. Spaces that are most public such the fourth floor, have no screen which allows for the most natural light to hit the space. On the contrary, spaces such as the 2nd or 3rd floor are covered by a screen, and ceilings which both allow for significantly less natural light. The simplicity of the rectangular screen, juxtaposes with the constant movement of the solid mass  and the tectonic floors. Allowing for the viewer to have moments of movment (the visually shifting floors) and moments rest (the rectangular screen), without oversaturating the viewer with either one.
