Vital Spine Design by MAA is in search of the ways to regenerate its existence in the interior space. By examining and changing its relation with exterior space it takes nature again in itself. The Gates at both sides of this living space helps to gets rid of the physical boundaries which are defined by the design of the Vital Spine. The living space in the Vital Spine is designed through human interaction with the natural elements such as marble, fern, and water. The integrity of the space and Vital Spine has been composed as a whole by redesigning this perception of marble on the ground.
