stöckerselig are designing a site for the planned Wislentunnel that will have a strong identity through abundant planting and a tower that lights up at night; the monotony of countless miles on the road is undergoing a minor transformation here. In ancient times, Pluto was used as the god of abundance to conceal the frightening depths of Hades. Pluto therefore becomes a provider of perfection in a positive sense here, a rich source of immeasurable richness and a place of creative abundance. With «Lumina», the lighthouse, stöckerselig add a warming, feminine counterpart to Pluto. «Lumina» protects human beings on their way through the «underworld». «Unterwelt».
