A garden house design with a pentagon roof and views to die for - it's an architecture lover's dream! This Japanese house by Apollo Architects & Associates wowed us right off the bat. The courtyard home plan incorporated this garden space right into its architecture, transforming a conventional house into something driven by geometry and nature. Surrounding the private garden space, this contemporary style home features rectangular volumes, stacked and staggered to give the home its unusual shape. While the main floor is made for privacy, the second level features a glass wall enclosure to capture the panoramic views of lush treetops and Sagami Bay and the ocean beyond.
