standing on 6 stilts is house in obama, by japanese suppose design office.
the rectangular building has no exterior windows, however consists of skylights, 
allowing natural light inside. the open space plan connects living room, dining room
and kitchen altogether.

At the start, just looking at the ouside, I wasn't so keen on the design; especially not having any exterior windows. the choice of exterior cladding doesn't necessarily agree with me, but the way it hvers over the ground is very pleasing.
The interior shots, however, opened my eyes to a great looking design, with loads of light afforded by the skylights. Great materials, nice lighting, open concept.
I like this one. Kudos Suppose.

I love the open sky perspective and the footed-building feels very clean. HOWEVER, not having any windows makes it feel so anti-social. If the view was so terrible or the neighborhood so dangerous, maybe this is necessary but views from windows (even if they face internally into an atrium/garden) are crucial to my ideal living space.

wow that is an interesting desing. I love the lighting that was on the outside of the building.

I like the design, but I wonder, is there a reason not to make exterior windows.

composed of volumes reminiscent of the archetypal house, each 'dwelling' functions as a classroom or playroom, their arrangement being much like that of a small neighbourhood.

enclosed with a windowless facade, the exterior of this dwelling discreetly lifts from the ground to introduce natural light into the living spaces.

contained within a discreet rectangular volume, a ground layer of sand transitions from the entry yard to the interior of the home, dissolving the distinction between the external and internal environments.
