The glazing half of the buried box, rising above the ground, is resulted from extruding a frameless picture window, and converting a flat view screen into a space for viewing. The resulting indoor terrace attached to the living room, provides views to top and bottom, as well as right and left, and overlooks the valley underneath.
MESH`s idea was to elaborate a mere view into an atmosphere where viewing the nature is an experience of time and space provided only by architectural design. The courtyard was designed into the volume box to minimize the construction`s footprint on the plot and leave the surrounding flora untouched.
