Upon arriving through the front door you are greeted by a small waiting area that extends into a second level terrace. After stepping onto the second level a rounded glass block wall stands distinguishing two circulation areas to the left and right. There is ample and equal space to the left and right that is in close proximity to the entrance, a space you relate to functional and formal activities such as cooking or dining. Following the circulation path to the right you proceed down a longtitudal progression that sparks a curiosity of what lies behind the glass block wall and the frosted glass doors that stand shortly a few paces from you. Opening the doors that you realize are actually sliding glass doors that retract into the wall is an interesting feature you did not expect and you are greeted by a an open circular space with a slender inverted column standing promptly in the center, a space you relate to the main attraction area. You recognize a second, smaller scale glass block wall that maintains a circular, dynamic shape, a space you relate to privacy most likely for sleeping or bathing. This area of privacy is the area furtherest from the entrance and therefore is the end of the spatial experience.
