Your experiential narrative begins through a gradual disconcerting threshold leading into an underground realm. The textural gradient is utilised on the floor plane in order to enhance the feeling of unease and allow you to gradually lose control of not only your physical grip but emotional too - beginning to implement the sense of mild anxiety.
Veins penetrate the floor of the underground entry beckoning you to bend down, touch, feel and sense.
To experience these veins in action, puddles are formed where seats are placed at curated heights where some encourage your shoes to submerge into the water and some hover just above.
The differing seat heights allow for different users, including children and elderly to experience this space one the same (or different).
LOOK DOWN.
