making the layers of the section more continuous (the floor- with the facade-spaces)
the outer facade becomes ornamented as well; for structural reasons and to create openings;

in the middle one of the representational spaces where the pattern forms the facade.
around it are the spaces where the pattern forms the floor.
I´m going to add some water to create views to outer space on the floor (like in space where i can look out through the floor into the vastness of outer space)
the last layer to the outside is purely artificial landscape that generates views for the adjacent floor-spaces.

the ring somehow got too slim. but that happened because i thought that it should be possible to look into the ring from the center of the flowery spaces. and that is easier when the radius is bigger because then the space can be bigger (floor area in curvature direction)

The canonical section I have chosen for this task is Palladios Villa Rotunda. What I will use for my project is the way how Palladios creates views through multiple layers of spaces.

For the layered views I want to achieve the effect, a bullet has when it gets shot through multiple layers;
Views
thinking about the bullet effect in section; In the space station the views will cut through different architectural elements (like walls, floors, ceilings) with one horizontal cut which will generate extreme horizonal confusion

first concept sketch:
This project should be about the integration of architecture in a landscape, which in space could become three dimensional and multi layered and on earth the section from outer space would convert into a 2d landscape organization in plan. So all the ramping elements and multiple levels would transform into paths that would run next to each other.
So there is this confusion between Section and Plan that gets much more confusing when adding plants. Since they are growing towards the main light source and in space the main light comes from the side, they would look in the space section the same as in the earth plan.
section in space
section on earth
left image:
plants always grow towards the light; in space the main light influence comes from one side which means that the gardens would grow horizontal
the view outside would always be being in a forest and looking up to the sky
right image:
to have the same effect on earth the visual connection to the outside should be vertical and the plants growing on walls

the landscape in space is on multiple levels and 3d; on earth the landscape sections becomes the floorplan
