(Click on image for larger view)1. A Y-shaped structure was used to imply strength to support the suspended laboratory against the cliff, and semantically acts as a meeting point for both scientist. The shape whimsically plays with the notion of cloning seen by the two symmetrical pathways diverging into one.
2. Lighting was used extensively to convey a sense of contrast between the two scientist, especially seen from their respective works. Blue representing the mystic depths of the ocean, and the warmer tones transcending away from natural colour ambience to something more artificial. Also note the structural beams underneath the ramp aiding in supporting the whole suspended structure.
3. The idea of ribs again plays with the attribute of structure, support, and also reduces the visually mass linking the two laboratories together by allowing natural light in.
4. Forward view, as seen from Cousteau's lab, of the meeting place, when both paths diverge into one.
5. Ramp access, as seen from Campbell's lab, also notice the attention to lighting as one moves from one space to another.
6. The meeting space, can also been seen as a fork in the road (with the idealism of artificial fusing with nature).
