Design Process 10 - Mirror Strategy

Because of the privacy problem with 2 houses, the wall of office for house A is planned to have 2 800mm windows placed diagonally, with the 2 mirrors following the diagonal line. Then views from opposite window can be reflected from the mirror, while the 2 windows frames the view from actual reality.
