The facade of this house is made up of a
structure where about 6000 glass blocks are piled up. This clear boundary
connects the interior of the city and housing without interruption. It is
difficult to construct a wall with a width of 8600 mm × a height of 8600 mm
with only a glass block of 50 mm × 235 mm × 50 mm, so it is made by attaching a
glass block like a reed like a beam from the upper beam. Although you can not
see the inside, you can enjoy the glass facade from outside.
