8The home gets lost into its surroundings
As you can see, the house gets completely lost and merged into its surroundings much like some invisible technology at play or as if an invisibility cloak was thrown over it. If not for the frames, you wouldn’t even notice it there.

9Every wall is like a hug unopened window
The interiors are as stunning as the exteriors because every part of the house makes you feel as if you are under the sky right in the open. Every wall is like a window without even having to open them where you can see stunning and panoramic views of your lush surroundings.
