According to Fiorelli –
“2. In this, a short vestibule precedes the entrance corridor, from which we arrive in the atrium, where there was the hearth that served a bar linked to the same house. Facing the atrium, is the tablinum, having on the right a cubiculum, and on the left a corridor, leading like the tablinum into the garden/viridarium, which was enclosed by eight columns, with a windowed triclinium at the rear, bordered by a staircase rising to the kitchen, and perhaps to other rooms.")
(“2. In questa
un breve vestibolo precede l’androne, del quale si perviene nell’atrio, ov’era il focolare che serviva ad un termopolio unito alla
stessa abitazione. Di fronte sta il tablino, avente a destra un
cubicoli, ed a sinistra una fauce, portante al pari del tablino nel
viridario, che rinchiuso da otto colonne, tiene in fondo un triclinio
finestrato, costeggiato da scala montante alla cucina, e forse ad altre
stanze.”)
