Deconstructive Lines of Light Decisive non-parallel lines mark the explosive energy of her first building: The Vitra Fire Station (Weil am Rhein, 1993)—a lucid expression of tensions with in-situ concrete walls. Light lines in the ceiling, or between wall and ground or between the wall and the flying roof
reinforce the linear architecture with sharp edges. In the interior, the light gaps between the wall and ceiling deconstruct conventional building structures as well. Even the design of the distinctive sun blinds intensify the linear pattern language. The precise light lines emerge as built manifestations of her suprematist paintings.

Seek Light Is Embracing Nature Nature + Light
Sunlight, the moon’s glow, and any other light nature provides us with is what guides us. We get in bed when it’s dark outside. We get out of bed when it’s light outside. We work when it’s light outside. We live our lives when it’s light outside. Therefore, when natural light enters your home, you should embrace it! Natural light not only helps you save on electricity, but it also brings nature into the space.
The key factor in bringing in natural light is a window. When designing your home, decorate your windows with curtains, blinds, or any window treatment to add a bit of character to the window. However, don’t always keep the curtains or blinds closed to block natural light from entering. Invite natural light into your home, don’t shut it out! Mother Nature wants us to embrace it and she knows best! It’s easy to take in natural light during the summer, with longer days and shorter nights. Turn off your lights and revel in the glorious sunlight! Natural light brings in a bright and uplifting vibe

In the dome construction has been used reinforced concrete and copper plates. On the facades glass curtain walls were placed. The auditorium stands on a round concrete coated with red brick.

Roof coating
Finding the right material for the lining of the dome of double curvature represented a challenge. At first it was thought marble tiles and plates coated copper lead, but were rejected for reasons of budget and performance issues. He was finally chosen a cover created with sheets of limestone mixed with liquid acrylic polymer, getting a shell of a “pure white�
In 1963 the thermal motions had left their mark on the building, numerous cracks and delamination, turning the original roof unusable. Square sheets of lead were installed. Water infiltration through the lining of lead precipitated severe deterioration due to freeze-thaw cycle. In 1979, the concrete and reinforcing beams near each edge replaced mainstay. Meanwhile, the cover boards were filled copper.
