The horizon line defines the largest space a human can grasp on earth. Three elements conform this space: the earth, the sky and the observer point of view. By the manipulation of any of these three variables, we can redefine the horizon line, and thus the space in which we are.When walking through La Pampa, because of the earth’s flatness, the observers’ eye encounters no obstruction. The horizon line moves each time the observer’s eye move. In this apparently infinite space, the horizon line is fixed by the construction of an inverted dome. A crater. By using the horizon as a limit, architecture and landscape coincide by in the definition of a unique limit.
