The main hall opens to a south facing panoramic window, so sunlight enters easily and the lake and the green planting come into view. A glass panel of 6.6 by 2.5 meters was lifted and installed to widen the view. A minimalist fireplace marks the main room. The living room, the dining room and the western kitchen are joined in one open space. Floor and ceiling share a single material for visual simplicity.

The tall perimeter wall, built almost fifty years earlier, was removed to open the front yard toward the street.
