● Tree Structural System: The structural integrity of the shards is ensured by a 'tree'
structural system. This innovative approach mimics natural forms, which may seem
chaotic but are inherently strong and resilient. The tree-like supports branch out to
hold various elements of the shards, integrating structural functionality with thematic
depth.

● Facade Design: The facade of the shards employs a rugged, almost brutalist
approach, using materials that reflect the harsh realities of war. The facade's design
is not only protective but also metaphorically represents the barriers and defenses
constructed during conflict. This exterior interacts dynamically with the
environment, changing perceptions as light and shadow play across its surface
throughout the day.
