7. Interior elements contain a recessed skirting at the
top and bottom, which intensify the visual experi-
ence of those elements. Besides that, floodlights

applied accessories create accents in color and
add liveliness to this area.

contrast to variant no 1. The round interior element
in the rear is now accentuated.
