With its limited land mass , material acres in Japan is a premium trade good . As such , there is n’t a lot of extra urban outer space for private garden — unless you build it on your roof , that is .
dub the Optical Glass House , this 330 hearty - time building was designed by far-famed Nipponese architect , Hiroshi Nakamura , and reside on a busy street in business district Hiroshima . Its glass frontage is comprised of 6,000 cleared , soundproof acrylic mental block , connected like a drawing string of pearls by brand wire . This permit for illumination and air to penetrate the bulwark but dulls the din of fomite and gives pedestrians a persuasion of the home garden .

6,000 of these clear bricks
make up this phone - dampening exterior paries ,
whose inner at dark

is just as telling as during the 24-hour interval .
Also , wooden ripple sink . How awe-inspiring is that ?
