the structure consists of several

frames that are spread out along

curved glulam beams in the top and

bottom. the bottom beams are rest-

ing on concrete footings. In order

to brace the structure and take the

horizontal loads, there are tension

rods in the ceiling making it stiff.

the cladding is in varying dimen-

sions and with different gaps,

resulting in a facade that is letting

more light in from the south than

the north. this reflects the function

of the upper platform that is facing

south, which is where most of the

stars can be seen at night.
