The completely free vault ceiling is used to project media/light installations (laser projectors as used in planetaria). In this way, it is possible for different media artists to use the room for different purposes with the aid of light and sound and thus contribute to further increasing the appeal of this “special place”.
The aim is to establish the Cannon Room as a platform for Graz as a City of Design in addition to its two major functions. (Architecture, product design, fashion, media design)
The “Murnockerl” stones provide the inspiration for various product developments derived from the shapes, textures and colours of the stones created by nature. Each product exhibits a constant elliptic figure that can be used as a building block in other products. The permanence and uniqueness of the stone is an ideal “trade mark” of the city and the raw material for creative design of a wide array of products.
