On entering the building both staff and visitorsshould experience a sense of openness, communication and the world ofvalues of VIEGA. This can be achieved if all the areas and units ofthe building can be experienced from a central space. Here spatial aswell as visual experiences and relationships play a decisive role.This process can be supported by multi-media element integrated inthe architecture, such as, for instance, LED walls or similar.Elements of this kind can be directly coupled with the proposedvirtual and augmented reality systems.

Through this mesh of experiences, one knows intuitively where one is: on site, in a transparent building that encourages communication and, at the same time, in the world of VIEGA.

This self-image is also projected outwards. Not byobtrusiveness or an overly exuberant formal idiom but, on thecontrary, through an exact depiction of the structure developed fromthe functions described earlier. The more coherent, considered andforward-looking this structure, the more self-evident, but also themore spectacular, the impression made by the completed building willbe. The position in the landscape and on the lake will make its owncontribution or will be appropriately presented.
