The home takes on the trend of open-concept where more light can enter so that less energy is used on lighting fixtures. At first, the house may seem to be one unit however, there is actually three different residences in this one home. Since the house by 314 Architecture Studio is an environmentally conscious, it has a roof garden that gives the home more personality. The earth inspires the colors in the home so there are a lot of browns and greens thus allowing for more relaxing feeling.

However, the home also includes heated floors for those long cold winter nights. With these concepts, you get a house that is perfect for both winter and summertime.
