"The building houses holiday flats.
The skin bends and 'flakes'; it is a visual protection screen and a light capturing device at the same time. This is the place of reflections and reverberations; windows disappear whereas flakes define cuts and projections, a surface with a sort of thickness of its own in which jutting openings face onto the sea, like sighting posts.
The flat complex "floats" upon a ground floor which is totally empty and dematerialized, connected to earth by means of a long glass wall."
