The House Aboobaker by Nico van der Meulen Architects takes the best parts of a tropical vacation and brings them right to your home. The slated ceilings under canopies that allow you to catch some rays, the luxurious indoor-outdoor pool that goes beneath bridges and the modern, exquisite furniture make this a standout design. The house design was constructed in Limpopo, South Africa.
Finished with gorgeous woods and glass, the transparent home functions as a vacation house while giving you the functionality needed for a steady all-year home. Offering incredible views of your own backyard, the glass walled exterior capitalizes on what you have right outside. With a small bridge that connects the indoors and outdoors, the unbelievable abode is truly an astonishing accomplishment by Nico van der Meulen Architects.
