Interestingly, a look at the design sketches reveals that each building was designed to almost "fold" and wrap around the other; reflecting each other's angles, and completing each other's design. They give the illusion of motion in the still landscape; as if they are merely "resting" in this given form for a brief while, until they begin to morph into their next shape. Poetically, in the designer's brief they actually describe the two buildings as "he" and "she" and state that they "become mates who give birth to architectural form in space."

Inside, the space's angular forms mimic the exterior, with high, unadorned ceilings revealing the buildings' structures and open rooms devoid of artifice and any unnecessary objects. The wooden wine and brandy barrels are stacked one upon the other, filling up the space with their volume. Simple light bulbs are casually strung and hang low from the ceiling, illuminating the barrels from above and casting a somewhat celebratory glow -- after all, the contents of these barrels are the main attraction to the space and the reason for its existence.   

In short, the separate and distinct volumes of this Wine and Brandy Distillery & Museum differ in everything from material to shape. Nevertheless, they coexist to perfection and both bring out the best in the other. Seems like the perfect relationship, doesn't it?
