Every visitor bed room has a balcony that enables increasing the inside, however on the identical time offers refuge in a non-public and intimate exterior linked to the park.

The excessive diploma of transparency of the constructing, the courtyard, and the double-height balconied circulations generate a multiplicity of three-dimensional visible and bodily relations, attempting to dissolve and query the boundaries of the inside and exterior.
