Circular booths are clad in corrugated metal, while the interior is lined with yellow leather tubes. In them customers and staff discuss phones, contracts and make payments.
Section AA
The ground floor is split by double yellow lines. Areas to the right are for viewing models, and to
the left for explanation and purchasing.
An elliptical tunnel links the two floors, clad in hard corrugated metal, while smooth on the interior. Over the two floors circular booths, appear to be stacked on top of each other. These forms derive from the coring out of the staircase tunnel. They provide a visual link between the two levels.
