* Architecture as a frame for nature
* Challenging the nature of materials
* Light and transparency
* Poetic flow and journey of space
* Strong relationship between indoor and outdoor
Kisho Kurkoawa
* Architectural impermanence as a challenge to the idea of monuments
* Devil is in the detail
* Raw and honest materiality
* Space and movement; travel and time
* Architectonic
* Idea of growth, repetition and geographical manipulation as a means of architectural design

Connection :
The link between the two different monuments is connected by a circular platform supported by a series of concrete beams in a star uniform. This is to portray the concept of "space and time" as viewer approach a seemly endless cliff.
A Frame of Nature :
The immediate site window (appearance) is outlined by a form of "frames" as a concept to capture the essences of an environments element and time as if the scene were a sequences of photo in animation.
Architectonic :
This notion by Kisho Kurkoawa highlights the shapes and structural form of an object portraying the idea
"Support is without weakness". My idea to the monument was to create a form that would appear impossible when viewed but to be convey as "im-possible"
