The openings : oculus

Three skydomes : lighting of an entrance, of a corridor and of a mezzanine.
> An "oculus" : light and view for a stair.
> Porch roof for the door opening on the terrace.
> Aeration chimney which reminds of the cyprus.
> Cohabitation of round curbs with the landscape. "Suspended" vegetation. Contrast with the near modern villa.

"Oculus"
in a bathroom.
The white painted gun reflects the light inside the bathroom.

When an "oculus" grows up, it becomes a SPACE/FURNITURE : here, a bathtub with the view and access to a private suspended garden and to the sea. On the right of the oculus, access to the solarium.


When the "oculus" becomes a truncated sphere, it is a pivoting window box for a flat or cylindrical partition (the axis must be moved if the partition has a double curb)
