Charles Correa is the architect of the Champalimaud Centre for the Unknown in Lisbon. «The buildings are arranged in such a way to create a 125 m long pedestrian pathway leading diagonally across the site, towards the open seas. This pathway is ramped up so that when walking upwards one can only see the sky ahead. At the top of the ramp there are two stone monoliths, straight from the quarry. When one reaches the highest point, one sees a large body of water which apparently connects to the ocean beyond. In the centre of the water body, just below the surface, there is an oval shaped stainless steel object, slightly convex so that it reflects the blue sky and the passing clouds above; it could be anything - the back of a turtle, a tropical island, a treasure chest - all included in the mythic adventure that inspired the discoveries.» (excerpt from www.fchampalimaud.org/images/uploads/November_Newsletter.pdf)
