Internalizing the Sun

The foundation of this project draws on the thinking of architectural masters, the perspective of lighting experts, and the lessons of precedent studies to direct a process of designing architecture that allows occupants to approach a sense of divinity. Architecture’s ability to elicit emotion, to incite wonder and awe, and inspire through occupation, is special. The proposal explored is a choreographed journey, seeking to remind visitors of their cosmic connection with the sun, sky, and horizon. To evoke a feeling of the sublime.
