First of all I build a model out of my milk shapes, this model looked like similar the backbone of a human.

I picked four separate layers out of this model and I fixed them in an appointed distance. Into the expansion space I hung stretchy textile. My next step was the effusion of this textile with gypsum. After this I got an interesting surface morphology.

 

There developed different highs of aisles and rooms. My whole building should be underneath the earth or rather as high as the existing building pit.

At the ground level of this model there were bladders which I’m going to use as windows and lightwells. This groundlevel should be like a landscape- smooth and eventful. On this landscape people can relax, meet or only walk through.

Underneath this surface there are the rooms of my building- the kitchen, living room, bath room, bedroom and a room for teaching people the abilities of Heronimus. These rooms are also smooth. Between these rooms are the aisles which are connecting the rooms. They are getting more narrow and looser. One of these aisles leads Heronimus directly to Innsbruck.

If Heronimus wants to get into his observatory he hast to pass a tower. This tower burrs through this smooth surface and grows against the sky. On the top of it there`s a capsule and in there are the instruments which he needs to watch the stars. The shape of the tower is an abstraction of the rock called ‘Frau Hitt’ in Innsbruck. It’s a very edged structure. But this was my aim because I wanted to create a contrary situation.
