VIEW

A small opening can reveal a close-up detail or frame a view
so that we see it as a painting on a wall.

A long, narrow opening, whether vertical or horizontal, can
not only separate two planes but also hint at what lies
beyond.

A group of windows can be sequenced to fragment a scene
and encourage movement within a space.
As an opening expands, it opens a room up to a broad vista.
The large scene can dominate a space or serve as a backdrop
for the activities within it.
