| Signage: | The carpet has a bright red base, covered with large flowing shapes in purple, magenta, and deep red tones. The pattern is loose and does not repeat, creating a sense of movement like flowing water or shifting land. This soft, painterly design contrasts with the hard architectural surfaces of the foyer and brings warmth and colour into the space. The design is inspired by the shadows of leaves cast on the ground at the building site. This idea connects the inside space of the Court to the natural landscape outside. |
