Art/Literary - Architecture | | Italian term or phrase: fa breccia | Describing a renovated farmhouse:
"Il rigore formale degli elementi **fa breccia** già dall’ingresso, dove una grande parete vetrata a nastro costituisce l’unico momento di discontinuità: l’affaccio sulla corte interna regala un’idea sospesa di leggerezza che spezza la penombra."
Thanks!

| Grading comment Thank you all. I agree that Barbara made some very good alternative suggestions and that "whole" would not work, but I used "makes an opening" in the sense of "making a first appearance" as nearest to the original and also perfect for the context. Thanks Jason!
