Japanese Home Design – a glass home hangs on a steep slope like a bird nest, not for the faint of heart!

Like a bird nest, this cool Japanese home by TNA Architects isn’t for the shy. Providing as equally an impressive view of the outside as of the inside, this amazing house is enclosed in a perimeter of windows nestled on a steep slope among the Karuizawa, with almost no support beneath it – looks like this bold, modern design isn’t for the faint of heart either! The projected architecture is made possible by the home’s steel frame, which is secured to the ground on one side. The contemporary, curved weekend house reaches off the hillside and around the trees, connecting to the other side. Inside, the house takes shape as an elongated floor plan, where one area of the home opens onto the other, separated by walls of glass. Apart from glass, the main material of choice for both the interior and exterior is wood. And true to this Japanese architect’s signature style, interiors are furnished with a minimal, modern edge.
