THE FRONT HAS A WATER CUBE THAT SHOWS HARVESTING AND STORAGE IMMEDIATELY. IT WAS NOT THE INTENT TO HIDE THIS PROCESS AND THEREFORE WAS MADE VISIBLY FUNCTIONAL.
THE AFTERNOON LIGHT IS SEEN IN THIS PHOTO ALSO WITH THE LINEAR ELEMENTS ON THE BACK GLOWING. THE LOUNGE IS NOT RECEIVING FULL DIRECT LIGHT THEREFORE ASWELL AS THE REAR OUTDOOR, THEY BECOME FUNCTIONAL SPACES DESPITE HOT WEATHER.
AS THE LIGHT GETS DIMMER AND THE SUN LOWER IN THE SKY, THE LIGHT REFLECTING INTO THE LOWERED GARDEN BECOMES SOFTER UNTIL GRADUALLY DISAPPEARING. IT WOULD BE NECESSARY TO PROVIDE LIGHTING AFTER THIS TIME.
PLACES TO SIT, SOCIALISE, DWELL AND FEEL AT HOME.
ENVELOPING OF FUNNEL MAKES SAFE AND SECURE SITTING AREA FOR VISITORS AND RESIDENTS THEMSELVES. THE FRONT STEP UP ON TO THE RAMP EXTENDS TO BECOME AN AREA TO SIT.
SEATED UNDER THE STUDY IS A STEP DOWN INTO THE REAR COURTYARD AREA. THIS LOWERED DINING AREA IS FULL OUTDOORS, BUT HIGHLY PROTECTED BY GLASS INFUSED WITH ALUMINIUM PATTERNS AND THE SOLAR HEATED FLOOR OF THE STUDY.
AFTER EXAMINING THE ENTRY INTO 'EDEN', THE USE OF A STANDARD SWING OR PIVOT DOOR WAS SCRAPPED. INSTEAD THE DOOR PUSHES OPEN ON A GLIDE AND CLOSES LOCKING INTO THE TOP AND BOTTOM OF THIS AREA.
