Casa la punta

We mostly feature homes on DTI that have fabulous interiors. The following home is more about the architecture. It was sent to us by the folks of newly established Mexican architecture firm Central de Arquitectura. Located in Bosques de las Lomas, Mexico, it's an incredible feat of design with a huge concrete box on top of a smaller glass one. WHOA. I love anything cantilevered.

this looks like an impossible house, the glass looks like it should shatter from the weight of the top. it creates so much tension!

I like the notion of the house being suspended. Also, that walk-in wardrobe is a mess!

omg, this looks like the top was about to crash the bottom room, so creepy, I'd be too scared to enter.

maybe because I'm brazilian and we have a lot of concrete/glass houses around here, the impression that the glass would shatter didn't hit me. amazing house!
