Step through the doors and the lights shift; a hush falls as projection and scent wrap around you. In the first room a stylized Tree of Life breathes slow pulses of color, then the Vast Starry Sky opens overhead and the floor seems to tilt toward distant constellations. Each chamber alters scale and sense—ocean petals that ripple underfoot, forest shadows that whisper secrets, and dreamlike clouds that hold your weight for a moment.
