exactly you see how they dealt with the space like you're right It's a huge space and such a room for innovation is not going to be small.

But what they did, from my understanding, is instead of you walking in the sun like a straight corridor, they introduced other activities.

But we also, you know, like, we're not just going to get bored of walking through a long corridor and things like this.

so i wanted to understand the space as uh in terms of the use of the vastness of the space and the what was the next thing that you did when you went there like what was the first thing what was the space like when you went there how how did you guys interact with this space

like you mean when we entered the building or like on the way into the building

building oh when we entered the building uh we could hear like the crowd on the opposite side of the building so we knew exactly where to go right when we entered

and it was like there was like a screen and behind the screen there were people and then someone was talking on the microphone so we knew that's where we had to go we didn't really have to ask anybody

yeah it was already there like it was it was pretty obvious for you yeah right And then what was, how did they arrange the space? Was it like an open area with like seats, chairs, or was it like segregated, divided into different spaces? Or how was the space like?

And yeah, so if you just walk into the building and see a group of people on the opposite side, you know exactly where to go so we don't have to ask the security so in

terms of wayfinding it was pretty smooth for you only the part where you were outside and then it's a huge area so obviously there's going to be but once you're in the building i think everything has been designed around the way but have you noticed something it's not the tangible elements it's things like people standing with the mic the way they dealt with the way they gather people You know what I mean? Like there was someone to be there and because, uh, again, when we design spaces, we don't really, we try to make it as adaptable as possible.

So we just keep an open space and then we deal with things like people and everything so that it can work according to the situation, you know? So, um, okay.

Now we spoke about your experience of going there, getting into this, uh, the place and you already knew what was happening.
