The building is not only sharply characterised by the clear separation of the volumes, but also through the clever use of materials in the exterior sections, that are connected to the interiors through the use of vibrant variations in colour. The paint, the Cor-ten steel sheets (used to clad the kitchen block, the ground floor in the guest area, the sloping roof), and the vertical wooden staves (Twinson) divide the exterior according to coplanar sections and different levels. There is a mix of materials and colours, with the dark hues of the Cor-ten sheets marked by circular openings - light "tubes" to illuminate the interior - and the delicate colours of the wooden staves. Inside, green stone, dark wooden flooring and more Cor-ten sheets in the kitchen are used, combining with the tailor-made Corian furniture
