THE CONTEMPLATIVE SHELTER

For this subterranean shelter, I've selected concrete as the primary building material with raw emerald stone as a focal point, which hosts a water feature directly in the center of the shelter. The water flows upward within the walls and returns to its original starting point, working on a timed sensor. The yellow-tinted desert glass draws inspiration from the film Bladerunner: 2049. The name Terra Incognita meaning 'unknown territory' in Latin, defines the site as something very private.
