I like the design of this and it's quite easy to maintain compared to other houses but I would only make a few portions of my house glass such as a wall in the living room, dining room, bedrooms and the entrance.
I also like how this makes man close to nature. Mind you this is not good when living in the suburbs or in the city.
I love it ! I would love to see a stream built that goes threw the house and real trees growing inside the house. Also a see threw top level using the new tech materials they use on the sydney tower deck.They also have a new window or glass that you switch from see threw to solid. My sister teaches at Risd. Im a sculptor in metal. Good job
