Hidden Door






There is a hidden door in a hidden floor 7 1/2 in the movie "Being John Malkovich."
When people enter that door they can reach to John Malkovich's head. They can feel as John Malkovich feel and see as John Malkovich see. Many people want to enter the door in the 7 1/2 floor to experience John Malkovich because of curiosity of someone else's life.



Curiosity is any natural inquisitive behaviour, evident by observation in many animal species, and is the emotional aspect of living beings that engenders exploration, investigation and learning. Traveling is one way to experience another life. While we are traveling we can experience different time and place, meet different people and apart from ordinary life.






As the hidden door in the movie "Being John Malkovich", this youth hostel is a hidden door to enter different world. This door is exit to leave from ordinary present life and also entrance to experience different life.





concrete : material which can represent present life.

transelucent concrete : This can be the intersecting material between ordinary life and the life people want to experience


glass : This shiny and transelucent material is representing the life people are dreaming and wanting to experience.
