The idea of situating and relating a series of objects in the landscape - Dwelling, Chapel, Hunting pavilion and Guard´s residence - gave the project a dual significance: in addition to the close relationship between landscape, objects and itinerary - between space and objects, each item had to provide a different response with different emphasis, from the most symbolic to the most silent or private. The unifying thread was to be the concept of the fold: the fold as a hidden generator of different spaces.
