9 connected prisms


Without Intellect comes no Spirit


i combined similar shaped prisms to achieve intellectual retreat and have placed the two objects in an environment where it would enhance the structures spiritual inspiration.


Its rare to find structures with an intellectual retreat concept. The glass materials and identical prisms help aid to the concept through mirroing. Spiritual inspiration is achieved by the minor holes in the shadow and inbetween the shape giving it a spiritual feel.



The booleaned shapes make the structure feel light. spiritual inspiration is achived through the intellectural retreat concept by making the buildings "talk to eachother" thus making them connect spiritually.
