Thank you Jakov, Frank, Gary and Tim
I will update it. Here is the main central building were all the roads of the 'star' lead to, called Grotto, build in 2009.
http://www.grotto09.nl/enIt's a brilliantly designed building by Callum Morton. He designed an invisible pavilion. The exterior is not immediately apparent, because it is a mirror, so all eight paths of the star continue in the reflection. The exterior of the pavilion functions both as a façade, screening off the inside from the outside, and as a reflective screen, mirroring and continuing the outside world. However, this continuation is an illusion. The Baroque design only appears to remain in view.
Grotto is a Baroque folly, a screen, a cave, a grave and a functional pavilion. Callum Morton’s thinking was guided by Baroque notions, the principles of contemporary entertainment, the human habit of looking for a place to be together with someone else, and the desire to produce an exciting tension between interior and exterior. “In the first instance, I wanted to develop a design that would clash with the Baroque layout of De Oude Warande,” says Morton. “But now I think it clashes with itself. Grotto is a paradox.”
Shot with CV90, the terrace and entrance are on the other side.
