The upper, private zone, has
a more closed character and is clad
with copper. This copper-clad "box" is carried by thin
steel copper-clad columns with glass-panes and Western Red
Cedar tiles in between. This provides the central zone with
a more transparent appearance for the main living area. Below
this, the concrete hull is the carrier for the arks upper
zones. The horizontal jumps in the roof mark the horizontal
division of the rooms and spaces. This horizontal spacing
is also emphasized by the use of a split-level build-up.
