Called Ribbon House, the single-family home is criss-crossed internally by diagonal columns and windows.
Overlapping planes form canopies and terraces.

Here's a bit of text from the architects:
Ribbon House
The juxtaposition of the different volumes between the public and private spaces of the house, the social and family life, gives place to a dynamic walk-through while the users visit the different instances of the house.
This way we can appreciate an up-down experience, connecting all the corners in the house.
The morphology and materials used, were thought to achieve that the strong transform in fragil, the solid in ethereal, the supported in support, the dynamic in static, and vice versa.
So the house is a search between the balance, juxtaposition, ribbon, viewing-point, vital tour, and hug.
