On the street level, it creates a roofed square with a small coffee shop, serving the area. The space gently continues the flow of the street under the street level, and moves up again to the garden. This movement is made possible by the massive structural beam, which is holding the upper floor.
On the aqueduct level, it creates a garden terrace. Like a balcony, it overlooks the cascade of gardens; the view is disappearing into the forests and fields outside of the city.
Both gardens, from the street and from the aqueduct level, are connected by the stairs. The sequence of public spaces creates a loop in the city that can be traversed endlessly.
The learning space, in contrary to the public ones, does not offer the outside nor directed views, yet it is filled with the light filtered by both gardens. It creates an inner world of learning with simple spatial divisions. By being able to enter the space from different levels, it constantly plays with the perception of the horizon.
The architecture is autonomous and contextual at the same time.
