The project explores the architectural articulation of dual spatial conditions: the public and the restricted, the profane and the ritual. This distinction is formalized through two geometric systems. The first is the notion of rectitude: the straight line, understood as the geometric foundation of the illusory material world, used as language to design profane spaces at ground-level, with a program organized through linear geometries, hosting the accessible and communal functions. The second is the circle, synonymous with unified totality, its elevation into a circular tower in an evident search for verticality, used as core of the restricted and ritual spaces, spaces where only a few could come, according to what was ordered in the programme. The tension between opposing forces, such as two opposite geometric languages, gives rise to vibration, flow, circulation, and order—qualities contained within this project that investigates how geometry, section, and access can construct a spatial hierarchy that reflects different modes of collective experience.
