Although the spaces are tiny and compact for Western standards, the use of space and light, and the integration with the landscape is awesome. I would love to visit this house and experience life in it. Well done! WOW! that's an amazing house.

Loads breathtaking vistas. I noticed the storage had backs to the glass which must result in ugly rear views from the wrong vantage point. Great design concept but impossible living spaces without privacy, warmth or the feel of home. Gorgeous curves and wonderful light. Loads breathtaking vistas.
