The "Stretto" form enabled Steven Holl to divide the space in such a way that each part was important for the next. The flow of the space evolved in different ways: the floor surface overlaps the next level, the roof overlaps walls and the curvilinear walls pull the daylight down into the interior space. The water - which flows over the dams and seems to symbolize the overlapping of the Stretto form - also takes part in this game, as it serves to reflect in the landscape the overlapping taking place in the interior space of the house.
