About the project (provided by the applicant)
Peep Show Box is a hyperloop campus that located in the Nevada desert. It includes research lab, museum and accommodation zone.
Life in the desert begins from within itself. Architecture with minimal impact respects and blends into the desert. Buildings inspired by their environment can help us experience diverse habitats, while future communication technologies can enhance this experience without relocation.
This approach fosters adaptation to various environments. The design emphasizes substructure, practicality, and symbolism, considering its surroundings. The project concept unites different worlds, influenced by Hyperloop’s speed, which alters our perception of distance. This idea led to merging earth and sky: placing a mirror in the desert reflects the sky on the ground, making the building blend in and serve as an icon for the Hyperloop project. Speed unites these realms, allowing us to experience multiple worlds simultaneously.
