The idea behind the project is to transfer the film making process to the building. The whole process is exposed in a theatrical way, viewers don’t have to enter the tower to discover the inside. They may observe it from the audience. The is a new world of film being created, presenting a true spectacle surrounded by a curtain of water. The building behaves like water – during the day it remains in a gaseous state, becoming blurry, and after dark it transforms to a solid state, which is more transparent, so we can spot the columns more precisely. The building is entirely connected with nature. It rises from the water. Energy is provided from area resources. Moving water is used to produce electricity, and during the hot days it has a cooling effect on the city. It is renewable - rainfall renews the water in the reservoir, so the fuel is almost always there. The functional program is divided into parts that symbolize the process of creating. We start from the bottom, evolving the higher we go, we reach the peak which is the final effect we get to know at the end.
