The Floating Glass House - Near Krakow, Poland (7 pics)



If you lived in this "floating" glass house, where would you spend most of your time? In the bathtub, reading a book and every so often peaking into the beautiful forest? In front of the piano, channeling your inner Beethoven and composing a masterpiece? Doing the backstroke in your indoor swimming pool? Or how about in the dining room, enjoying a delicious meal with friends while sipping on a glass of Merlot?

Designed by PCKO Architects in co-operation with MOFO Architects, the Jodlowa House near Krakow, Poland is one of those homes where you can imagine you'll never experience "cabin fever." The modern glass house has two bedrooms and a five story tower, consisting of guest rooms on the lower levels and a study on the top.

Besides the fantastic views check out the tree that's been preserved by integrating it into the house thanks to openings in the ceiling and the floor. Talk about bringing nature indoors!

SO Beautiful, I Love this place!
It's got nature wrapped around it and growing through it.
And I like to see natural materials used, as in the case that beautiful tower. Amazingly Beautiful!
