This article is more than a year old and may contain information that is out of date. Sorry about that.
This house, completed in Singapore in 2014, is built around a central courtyard. Within this courtyard sits a frangipani tree within a pond, placed within a striking timber and glass box.
This formation allows light into the centre of the house, as well as creating a green space within the urban property.
