The subtle relationship of Nature and human-made nature has always been a topic. The Project is about imitating nature and reproduce the sensory field from the antelope valley. We thought about the material property of the interface. The walls are designed not solid, simulating the soil property on the site, is sensitive to nature and can be eroded by the water flow.
The river is designed to be able to flow through the project so the underground space made by human will be filled with sediment, so the human-made space will be given back to nature. The design is not only about the spacial experience for visitors but also a conversation about man-made environment and nature. The material of the wall undertakes the medium of the dialogue. The material becomes narrative, tells the story of the river ebb and flow.
