The architects mentioned that ‘the project was conceived following the guidelines of the surrealist’s exquisite cadaver where each designer builds upon the work done by the previous one.’
This resulted in a vertical home, composing of two wood volumes surrounded by a coniferous forest.

In the dining room, an artistic detail that looks like scales, travels up the wall, and guides your eye to the glass in the ceiling above.

The home also features large floor-to-ceiling windows throughout, which allow the natural light to fill the home and bounce off the expansive white walls.
