Light additive space and heavy grown space in the urban context from Hopper's Nighthawks.
Sections, front facade references to Le Corbusier's United Nations building in New York, while the side ratio references to Mies's Seagram Building. Internal fabrick and program become the 'wall' mass.
The seven cocoons are organized according to the bar stools in Nighthawks. Undeveloped cocoons represent vacant seats, which has the potential to be occupied by a character lost in thought. The relative position of the characters in the painting's composition is maintained.
