By having it as a “Half-Donut”, a semi-protected space (prevailing winds and psychological) is created while still being open to the surrounding landscape. Greater amounts of sunlight can also penetrate the spaces and sliding doors can be opened to make the interior space exposed to external qualities like sound, wind, and smell. The material palette of a rough bark-like cladding for the exterior directly contrasts with the smooth lighter wooden interior, referencing back to the surrounding landscape and enhancing the qualities of both materials through their vast contrasts.
