I think if I lived in the Warren Schwartz Vacation Home, I would feel like I'm walking a plank. With a skinny structure, this house slopes down a hillside, jutting 45 feet out and floating 14 feet above ground.
Surrounding the elongated room that hovers outward are all-around floor-to-ceiling windows, offering a panoramic view of the great outdoors. The Warren Schwartz Vacation Home is a stunning, suspended design that I would turn into my year-round home.
