page 2- the vortex
Stepping out of the lift the guest is encountering a sublime and intense spatial formation, where the ceiling dips down and melts into the floor to form a cocoon. Light seams direct him to the corridors.

This conscious intensification of experience within the circulation culminates in the knot, the area where both corridor wings fold into each other to create a vortex, forcing the ceiling to dip down and form a cocoon; a bracket in space and time from where projections of Madrid’s daily routine can be watched flickering whilst waiting for the lift.
