Some of the furniture interventions sit in direct contrast to the existing stone shell, as spatial parasitical events, activating and transforming the space around them, be it with carefully chosen colour tonalities or seemingly stark metal features. Other elements are a continuation of the natural rock, extruding the shell, commenting on the tactility of the rich materials found on site. Rocks, stone, marble form a cave, this design is a restless exploration on touching stone.

*Touchstone is a fictional character in Shakespeare’s play ‘As You Like It’. Throughout the play he comments on other characters, contributing to a better understanding of the play.
