The idea was to create a space within a space. A suspended object inserted into the existing environment marks the new occupation of the room while at the same time maintaining its original characteristics.

The installation also has a strong graphic design , as it repeats the floor pattern on all the upper surfaces of the furniture and as the mirror on the ceiling repeats it.

Each use is demarcated by the gaps in the structure. Furthermore, by repeating the floor design on all the upper surfaces of the furniture, a play on the reflection in the mirrored ceiling is proposed and an installation with a strong graphic language is created.
