Located on a house terrace, a place where privacy is everything, a space of public scale appears. Its size is almost obscene in relation to the whole house. The public dominates the private.
Its condition of use is open and is determined only by folds that invite you to sit or lie down, together with changes in the quality of the material: wood, grass or net. Actions here are linked to pleasure and leisure.
Materially, the intervention is a single-sided envelope. Using the sheet metal roof located below, its behavior is concentrated on what happens on the upper face, leaving an inert space between it and the roof. Variation in structure corresponds to variation in geometry and surface finish.
