Overview

A slow, sensory journey through light, shadow, sound, and celestial alignment—guiding visitors away from daily noise and into a deeper awareness of themselves and the cosmos.

Mission & Vision

Star Axis is a monumental earth/star sculpture in New Mexico by artist Charles Ross, aligned precisely with celestial geometry. Designed for naked-eye stargazing, it invites visitors to experience cosmic time and space on a human scale.

Look Up

Look up to the vast sky,
where cosmic rhythms reshape your sense of time.

Look In

Look in to the deep self,
where changing your gaze reveals new constellations of meaning.

Design System

The design system draws from the geometry, light, and celestial alignment of Star Axis. Every element reinforces stillness, scale, and new ways of seeing.

Concept Walkthrough

We’re not creating another planetarium, but an experience that can only be felt at Star Axis, where time and space are perceived not only through the eyes, but through the whole body.

Look up to the vast sky,
where cosmic rhythms reshape your sense of time.

Look in to the deep self,
where changing your gaze reveals new constellations of meaning, and the stars reflect who you are becoming.
