Exploded Isometric Diagram 1:75 Holes on the host’s roof helps to funnel in natural light for the parasite to generate its lighting.
The blank and puristic cube form of the walls and roof (host), is being distorted due to the relaxation from the parasite. The host itself then catches the light that are being generated by the parasite, producing intense patternation on the previously blank walls of the host.
The internal minimal surface acts as the’parasite’ which latches onto the ‘host’ (orthogonal cubic walls and roof). This surface generates light by absorbing sunlight through the occuluses during the day and via LEDs at night time. The lights casted by the parasite (minimal surface) is then caught by the host (walls and roofs).
The distinction between the base and pavilion is blurred by relaxing the columns into the base; as if the column rises up from the base.

Initial form of the host: A pure cubic form with 2 surfaces exploded off
Cubic form is forced to distort to accomodate the parasite’s form. The host still mantains certain degree of its cubic form but now with distortions and openings.
The minimal surface parasite that depends on the host as a platform to project the lights that it generates.
