Architect's own home has custom curtain wall and strong connection to nature

While the fenestrations seem random in this feature curtain window, in fact they are a cleverly designed feat of engineering. Stress points are transferred one join down to the next, with the hollow section steel tube helping support the weight of the roof. Sunlight reflects off the swimming pool into the home's interior, and the pool itself laps against the glass in wintery weather – yet another way nature creeps into the design.
