The Panoptic is the architectural figure that constitutes a machine in which everyone is imprisoned; both those who exercise power and those over whom power is exercised. This technology of power is the most characteristic of the societies that is installed in the 19th century and represents the image of today, is a model based on the principle of visibility through a watchman and a watchman; it works in a ring-shaped construction and in the center of the building a tower, it allows to see the watchman and in the same way the protected group observes the watchman.

This quote is the central and fundamental point of our project concept for the new seat of the Senate of the Republic; Without emabrgo we are not sure if this way of exercising power is the most convenient or the most appropriate for an enclosure of these characteristics, therefore we raise exactly the opposite.

We put it through an architectural system, where the possibility of seeing and being seen is exercised bilaterally, equitably and in a close interrelationship of the building to the people and the people to its representatives, so that if in the building of the panopticon the tower of the vigilante it is established as a relationship of power and incommunication, in our project the full room is located at the center of the whole in the form of an egg and it is established as an architectural apparatus exposed to society in a visual dialogo, it is also located on the same level of floor as the people.

The guiding element of the new headquarters is the full room and around it there are three buildings that store and house this main element, its egg-shaped volumetric responds to the use in its inner space.
