Bel and João Diniz intended the project to be an invitation to interaction and reflection. Inside, visitors could discover the texts "Today everything changes here", "Cubo listens to every speech", "These people want to fly", among others — an experience that established a personal dialogue with visitors, in addition to being a source of inspiration for them. To complete the sensory experience, a soundtrack composed and performed by the architects dictated the atmosphere of the space. The metal cube was inserted into the Steel Garden , a sculptural installation of modularly folded rebar that blended into the local vegetation. The metal pieces appeared as if they were native plants of the garden, sprouting spontaneously from their composition. The garden also featured loose letters on the lawn, inviting people to stay and create their own poems in an interactive way.[newsletter]
