Eclipse is a third-year architectural project done by Helen Zhao and
Julian Molina under Edgar Duran. The biological circadian rhythm was
researched and studied to design the circulation and feeling of the environment
for a user. Eclipse is a spa-resort located at Humphreys Peak, Arizona--
the tallest elevation in the state. Each of the five elevations are based on human
brain waves with the programmed used of the space. The sensory deprivation tank
provided for optimal relaxation. Main materials include concrete, aluminum and
glass.
Eclipse was awarded the Design Excellence Award (Spring 2024)
by ASU Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts.
