Sometimes my visual input can go further than decoration and become part of the architecture. I designed this after coming back from the USA in 1972. I turned the facade of the low connecting building and the pavement into black brick and replaced the originally vertical windows with a long strip of glass that horizontally divides the facade in two. Over this, I cast colossal red blocks that tumble to the ground like broken-off building elements.
