“Weightless and transparent like a soap bubble” – in order not to obstruct the scenic view from the portico, the structure needed to virtually disappear. This was achieved by eliminating all notions of structural support and devising a composite system in which the glass operates as a component of the working structure. The resulting structure is uniquely transparent and graceful.
