Mar interior is a small wooden architecture created with the aim of creating a ritual space where water can be perceived in a meditative way, isolated from light and external noises. So when a person enters the interior he or she perceives that the only light that illuminates the space enters through an opening that rests on the water, so that it colours the whole space and the people inside it in blue. Also the perception of sound is important, thanks to its rounded shape it maximizes the sound of the small waves that hit the opening.
A space that helps to perceive water in its beauty.
