The condominium had no way to receive trucks, and the gatehouse grows out of that problem. Two slabs at different heights: the higher one clears the way for trucks, and the lower one shelters the booth and those arriving by car, without the excessive height of a single plane.
Concrete, stone and glass ask for little upkeep over the years, and accessible routes follow the whole path of those arriving on foot. The arrival is generous for the truck and measured for the pedestrian.
