The floor plan is shaped like a zigzag line intersected by a straight line. Empty spaces called "voids" can be found throughout the building, these symbolize the lack of jews in Germany during the holocaust.
Three paths cross on the lower level: the Axis of Exile, the Axis of the Holocaust and the Axis of Continuity. White Hat Architecture thinks that a memorial needs to reach the viewer and evoke thoughts and feelings that are related to the theme of the memorial, in this case, the loss and suffering of the Jewish community.
