The layer of this building’s bearing structure and external wall perimeter is duplicated by a metallic grid layer placed at a certain distance suspended from a roof railing and touching the ground. In this way the internal layer can have a surprising color touch while the external creates a muted image of the asymmetrically patterned window openings. Everything else stays in total white and at the center of the premises an impressively designed minimal courtyard becomes the star of the show.
