Creating a even lighting of natural daylight in the night. To Illuminate a architectonical skin as if it is shining and to embed the light direction that it is not able to be seen by the passers-by. For the unschooled eye it appears as if the lighting result of the apparent forceful downlights which emit the lighting from the floor.

The light stripes create a shining nearly imbedding surrounding, in which the hotspots of the light produce a certain dramaturgy. But also the form itself gives the people something they know by using the broken structure of the boulders in the surrounding area to develop the polygonal folded corpus.
