Glass Cylinder House in Kazakhstan

tree in the house moss and fog 1

To be built in a thick forest in Almaty, Kazakhstan, this stunning home is a tall glass cylinder with a tree growing directly up through it.  Designed by architect Aibek Almasov, the house is tree focused, both inside and out.  We imagine it would be extremely meditative to be in such a beautiful environ. Privacy, not so much, but it seems like the setting alone would make up for that. Via My Modern Met:
