Entry Description

“Synapse” is a vision for the built environment as such a place that encourages us to look deep within. Ethereality is manifested within its space by light and water. A blank austere canvas is contrasted with that of an ancient divinity. It both recycles and reenvisions the role of spirituality and religion within our lives today. 

This project sets the perfect backdrop for innovation amongst artists, poets, and designers. It is the quintessential evidence for regenerative design as we begin to address the spiritual, environmental and physical implications of architecture and design.
