Full-hight sliding glass doors, 5m long and with a flush threshold detail, connect this contemporary kitchen/dining room with the external terrace and the garden beyond. The basalt paving to the external terrace extends into the room, reinforcing the connection between outside and inside. A long frameless rooflight runs parallel with the sliding glass doors, bringing further natural light into the interior and creating an axial connection between the sitting room at one end and the kitchen at the other.

The wall opening in the foreground can be closed off by a sliding pocket door concealed in the thickness of the wall, providing privacy in the sitting room when required.
