On the long sides of the house, there are three large, tall glass panels, allowing seamless transitions between interior and exterior spaces.

The home can sleep up to 12, and in this bedroom, exposed wooden studs have been painted white and act at shelving.

In another bedroom, two beds have been perfectly fit into a small space to maximize the number of people that can visit the vacation home.
