On sunny days all the rooms of the transparent house are flooded with the light. Its inhabitants have to take care to hide from the foreign eyes.
The spatial design of the transparent house is unique and ultramodern. The space of the house, whose surface is 85 sqm, is divided on several levels, which are connected with each other by fine stairs. In the house there is the modern kitchen, the bedrooms, the excellent recreation zones with panoramic windows. The dominant color of the interior is white.
