With dramatic views of the mountains the
exterior wall is primarily glazed, allowing the client a protected
gaze upon the landscape. In certain areas the glass slides away
to allow the outside to enter into the comforting abode. Also
the concrete slab the house sits on continues uninterrupted outside
the house, linking inside and outside in the horizontal plane,
as the glass links them in the vertical. The image at left illustrates
the treatment of the adjacent landscape of concrete at a micro
scale - adjacent to the house - in addition to the macro scale
of the mountains beyond.
