This 'house' by Mr Sou Fujimoto is most intriguing. Made almost entirely of glass and steel framing, the house appears to be almost too transparent for most of us to consider to a house to be.
Despite the smallness of the individual 'rooms', the spaces seem to be nicely fitted with the internal usages and program. There are many spaces where the users can interact with one another across levels. People can sit across rooms like platforms.
I like this project because it challenges the notions of house and home. The concept is quite clear (no irony here) and logical, that of a house with many rooms with a singularity to it.

These are just some musings I had whilst viewing this fascinating project.
I would love to see the drawings for the N A House and see more closely the internal workings of this project. In addition, it would be interesting to see aspects such as the air circulation and conditioning. The house looks efficient in its usage, but is it in reality?
