FS: Is your design being produced or used by another company, or do you plan to sell or lease the production rights or do you intent to produce your work yourself?

WL: We worked with the woodwork construction team to create the way that make the arc walls.
FS: What is the role of technology in this particular design?
WL: The arc wall must be 280 cm high to show the visual effect of the space and the penetration of the sun.
FS: Is your design influenced by data or analytical research in any way? What kind of research did you conduct for making this design?
WL: We kept trying and finding the minimum curvature of the arc wall.
FS: What are some of the challenges you faced during the design/realization of your concept?
