Imagine that filled with furniture...Architecture is not just about the walls or light effects...I actually can imagine a child there, riding a tricycle or playing a ball...I wouldn't let it go on the roof though... It's really nice canvas for beautiful life. The pictures are of empty house.

I appreciate the modern/post modern/international "styles" for the simplicity and cleanliness, and efficiency of space. On the other hand, could you imagine being the child in the family of this lifeless, sterile home? Can you envision the jarring terror of being toted, half asleep, hoisted on your father's shoulder after a long soccer game to peak open an eye to this austere mammoth? You don't just walk in...it consumes you.
