The rather irregular, amorphous surface adopts the shape it requires in each place:

growing from the sidewalk, attaching the dividing wall, behaving as a fence and finally becoming a porched entrance.

The basements connect both sides of the plot at the same level. That's why one corner lays in a lower level, leaving not physical but visual connection with pedestrians.

​

The mesh

is composed of wooden triangulations, differently orientated,

 incorporating glass when covering indoor spaces or lamellas filtering the light where outdoors.
