Regarding Mercury Hotel Garden

Mercury is a hotel garden designed for the entrance area of a hotel on the coral coast of Kish Island, beside the Persian Gulf. The garden covers 1200 square meters. The forms are taken from the underwater world, in particular the corals and fish seen along the coast. Different lighting is applied on each side and angle to create contrast.
