   Aires mateus has used this windows system too, in a very nice way.

   For me, the first inspiration is not Le Corbusier but middle age arquitecture.
   Le Corbusier was very inspired by l’abbayes du Thoronet which uses the thickness of the stone wall to reflect the light

   You can notice tha Le Corbusier use those widows in order to use the reflection too but all the others architects have returned the windows and use the systeme as a aesthetical pattern.

         Thanks Fabian for relevant examples

         Another good example that reinforces the Insight

         “we don’t need to be intimidated to get inspired from relevant buildings”
         this is the the essence of the “Conscious Inspiration Method”
