The roof of the building is in the form of fallen autumn leaves and rests on a metal structure of the beams, which closely resemble tree trunks.
The interior also is decided in eco-style and is limited by transparent glass panels of specially shaped and reinforced material. Some of the rooms are built into the ground with slightly uneven surface. That are underground, does not make them darker or uncomfortable, but provides privacy and tranquility. The whole thing is January natural environment and allows for a variety of sensory experiences. The British design studio and a full house. But its construction will begin later this year, but the location is not yet known.
