They are avid art enthusiasts who allow artists and designers to hold small-scale exhibitions on the ground, mezzanine and 2nd level (which on other occasions are used as entertaining guests), hence the gallery-like circulation space existing within a linear property. In general, this is a home concept not suitable for all but has done well in meeting the needs of the home owners. Perhaps some background info on the actual usage of the home owners.

Nice project, clever ideas, well done. See that wasn't hard. Now you try. I don’t get it. How can you guys look at this and complain about excessive circulation?

Watching the huge brick wall 3 meters in the distance?! And the guests entering will have to run over a wet floor if you decide to take a swim? Mmmm...
