office – work in progress
Die Geheime Bibliothek hat nun ihren zentralen, blaugrünen, elliptischen Tisch - the logic and the magic sind im Raum. Gudny Gudmundsdottirs Farben wandeln sich stetig, die Bibliothek ist Beides - klare, winterliche Eislagune und heitere, sommerliche Datscha.
You never have a second chance to make a first impression: Der illusionistische Himmel des Entrees vereinigt die fünf unterschiedlichen Öffnungen für unterschiedliche Zwecke auf kleinstem Raum und vergrößert sich selbst ins Endlose. (Natürlich nicht auf der EIngangsseite! Hier findet der private Raum ein Ende)

Alternative Histories - contemporary practices were invited by M.Grootveld und J.Engels to imagine an exchange with architects from the past: We worked on Archizoom´s secret theatre /teatro segreto in ambiente domestice con gazebo metallico, after 1966:- the reflecting gazebo refers to Archizooms no-stop-city - the secret theatre is endless and everywhere.
