The internal skin is a layer of rotate-able white translucent screens. When the screen is rotate to the position perpendicular to the facade, the panoramic lake-view enters the dining space; when closed, the dining room has both proper natural light and privacy.

The Queen let another drop fall from her bottle on to the snow, and instantly there appeared a round box, tied with green silk ribbon, which, when opened, turned out to contain several pounds of the best Turkish Delight.

Standing silently but amiably to one side, he would unbolt the magic boxes, hold the ropes, demonstrate the emptiness of beakers and pots, confirm the thickness of a sheet of glass before a near-naked girl would climb into a magic box and pass straight through it!
