"Room and Narrative"

I have designed two separated spaces connected to each other by rising stairs and under one glass roof. The two spaces are designed for seating inside and resting, or chatting.
These two spaces have different characteristics which is defined by two type of glass walls with defferent heights.The glass walls play an important role here. in the first space the walls are transparent so inside is visible from outside but in comparison with the second space, it has higher walls. Although this space has higher walls but there is not much privacy as every thing is visible from outside.
Three rising stairs lead you to the second space which has non transparent glass walls but lower than the first space. This space gives you the sense of being outside in the middle of the society while you are protected by the non transparent glass walls.

The two spaces are being lifted from the ground. My idea behind it was because the second space which is derived from Hopper painting shows an idea which is from his time, that was still suspended and doubtful and had not find it's place in society properly.

There is a wall 4 openings infront of the second space. This wall helps with the play of lights and shadows in the second space as well as improving the privacy of the second space.
