Karen Severns added this to An Early Synthesis of East-West Design: Antonin Raymond
All four of these first-floor rooms offer splendid views of the lake from expansive windows and a front veranda that runs 8⅞ by 55¾ feet (2.7 by 17 meters), nearly the entire length of the villa. The veranda is enclosed by sliding doors and shutters, but these slide back on warm days to allow a full embrace of the landscape. The effect of the view from within the building is extraordinary. The Japanese call this framing of nature shakkei, or borrowed scenery.

1階の4つの部屋ではいずれも、大きな窓とベランダから湖の素晴らしい眺めが見える。正面(湖側)のベランダは2.7×17メートルで、建物のほぼ全長に延びている。ベランダは引き戸と雨戸で覆われているが、暖かい日にはこれらを開け放ち、風景をじかに楽しむことができる。室内からの眺めが生み出す効果は絶大だ。日本の伝統的な「借景」の考え方が生きている。
