This house is a conceptual design by Milano-based designer and architect Carlo Santambrogio. These are actually pictures of a very well done artist's rendering and not a real house. Not yet anyway. The house above is part of his glass house series, and this one in particular is designed to be a "snow house." The grid structure of the house is made to be modular and can be designed into almost any configuration. In his "cliff house" design, the house is elevated over a thin sheet of water, making its occupants feel like they are floating above the cliff.
