它还打算创造一个意想不到的可能性，创造一个岛屿的首都-Funchal的展览空间形状，将其整合到农村环境中，并将其投射出空间维度和复杂性，供大规模使用，并立即受到地理位置偏远和影响非常大的自然规模的限制。它的内在性和复杂性只有在我们在里面的时候才能被揭示出来，我们对悬吊在15米以上的动物感到惊讶。

It also intends to cause the unexpected possibility of creating an exhibition space shape of the island's capital city-Funchal, integrating it in a rural environment, and projecting it with spatial dimension and complexity for a use in a large-scale, immediately limited by being locatedin a remote and very influential natural scale. Its interiority and complexity are only revealed only when we are inside, and we are surprised by animals suspended over 15 meters.

这座建筑被纳入地形的形态，并作为景观的一部分，在地形的连续天然梯田上发展，直到海滨，那里的形状与海景建立了严格的对话。

The building, incorporated in the terrain’s morphology and included as an element of the landscape, develops over the topography’s successive natural terraces until the seafront, where the shape establishes a strict dialogue with the seascape.
