        Scale reference. You can barely see "whats-his-name" inside.

                    Early render tests. A lot will change before it's finished. Just playing around right now.

                      Interesting build, intriguing concept, I like that last view. Very modern feel.

                        Thanks Mike!

                        Here are some minor updates. Just fooling around with decor. I did change the stairwells to glass instead of the vertical bars.

                                It may be me but I like the definition given by the bars.

                                  I like the glass better. It's in keeping with the exterior glass and the bars seem heavy. Maybe provide definition some other way. I don't know that the glass would be so thick but it could have reinforcing (glass) fins to add detail. It gives more the appearance of passing vertically through the floors like a single, continuous vertical element,which I like.

                                    I liked the bars as well but it did block the view and light. I also realized is was a 1950s-60s decor style and while I love mid-century design, it was not right for this house.

                                    The glass is actually acrylic which is lighter, safer and more durable than glass.

                                        It's all acrylic. The real problem would be cleaning it!

                                          It's interesting. Very futuristic looking. However, to be in such a beautiful setting and yet be detached from it (your literally in a bubble) seems contrary to the point of even being there. You can't even step outside on a balcony to enjoy the air.

                                          My avatar is an anachronism.

                                            No balcony. Good point. I'll see if I can put one in. It really should have one now that you mention it.
