该项目的基础概念是“分叉”。“分叉(Furcation)”一词来源于拉丁词furca – fork，表示一条河流的几个几乎相同的支流。
进入城堡和内部的新交通流线都按照“分叉”的原则。建筑物内的主要流线也对应分叉原则。桥在开始的时候分叉了，最终都汇聚到院子里。
坡道引导游客行走和观看。斜道使游客适应路线上室内和室外的高度变化，并建立游客可以坐下休息的空间。“远景”楼梯在庭院中成为视觉中心。
外面看，最明显的是新形式的外部楼梯，通过它，可以登上城堡。客户需要一个可以从远处看见的、通向国家公园的大门。无论在主要街道的任何方向，都能看见这里的新的建筑元素，并产生兴趣。它构成了入口视觉上的华盖，它在街道上开始引导人们进入城堡。扶手栏杆有节奏的、高高低低的、蜿蜒曲折的通向城堡。
在入口处外围是穿孔钢板，它本身是一个标志，重点是让游客观赏周围的风景。
在紧张的预算控制下，建筑师设计了醒目的国家公园入口，吸引人们访问。

The principle of “furcation” provided a basis for the concept of this project. Furcation originates from the Latin name furca – fork, it indicates the branching of rivers into two or more creeks with almost the same profile.
The new access to the castle and the internal circulation was all carried out in accordance with this principle. Also corresponding to the furcation principle is the coverage of the building and the route organization, which is based upon the definition of one main path. This starts at the beginning of the bridge, splits up inside the building, and eventually comes together again in the courtyard.
Ramps along the path guide visitors, both in terms of where they walk and where they look. The ramps help to accommodate level changes between the inside and the outside of the building and generate areas where visitors can sit and relax. The “vista” staircase visually completes the courtyard.
The most obvious indication form the outside is the aforementioned newly constructed access to the castle. The clients required a kind of gate to the national park which would be visible form far away. Coming from either direction on the main street the access is clearly perceived as a new element, and generates interest. It begins as a kind of optical illusion formed from the entrance canopy and develops in height as it leads away from the street and approaches the castle. Handrails have been included which appear at intervals as the pathway rises and falls and snakes its way towards the castle.
The design of the entrance construction, clad in perforated steel sheets, serves as an indication, focusing the gaze and framing the surrounding nature for the visitors.
Under an tight budget the architects were able to produce an eye-catching introduction to this beautiful national park, thereby encouraging visits here.
