The “A” limestone hills’ shape has a dolomitic character. Resembling water as it enters the interior of the hill, we wanted the interior of the Artificial Rock to be naturally lit throughout by the use of stalactites and a channel for light and water. In this sense the interior of the Artificial Rock, with its uniquely effective light well, imitates a full moon.
