This place shares with the vestibule the same fluid and complex spatiality. It has an ambivalent program, but its function within the spatial sequence leaves no doubt that it is at once a prelude announcing the encounter with a terrace that opens up to the sky, and the climax of the ascent started in the vestibule. It is the invitation to discover the terrace through a vertical crevice, a yellow light solid where three wooden steps slightly peer, and whose dimensions suggest a contemplative and solitary ascent.
