The external building is based from the quote by Jaques Yves Cousteau,"people protect what they love." The main emphasis from this quote is "protect". The fortress like spears are a representative of a sea urchant and how this unique creature protects itself from predators. The design also resembles the bow of a ship and how an ice breaker forges ahead through the worst of winter elements protecting the passangers on board.
This internal is based on the quote by Alfred Nobel."Hope is natures veil for hiding truths nakedness." hope and truth being the major factors in the design. The roof is raised to resemble a church, as church is a place people go to find hope and truth. The sunken floor is representative of "nature", as this is where the scientist works to revealing what he has found.like peeling back the husk off corn,"nakedness".
