Outside the Edge - Hawking







Outside the edge is Hawkings work space. It is designed as a representation of the unvierse from both a macroscopic and microscopic view. When inside the space the sheer size reminds us of planets and the solar system, and there are small holes in the wall to mimic stars, while when viewed from afar, seems more akin to Bohr's model of the atom. The ramp has been designed as to let Hawking access the space via his wheel chair with little difficulty, yet for others there is more or a challenge, this echoes the intellect of Hawking, as he comprehends that which others cannot.
