Original Sketch



Currently the model is unfinished only depicting the bottom part of the section. The model consists of three large mountains of space submerged beneath the ground. The mountains cut into each other creating additional elements within the space such as the slope that leads from ground level into the central mountain space. The primary material used is concrete for the walls and floor. Glass is also used to create a sky light in one mountain space. In contrast to the sharp angles of the mountain forms there are vertical stone walls surrounding the opening and entrance.
