Somewhere in upstate New York, an architecture firm called GLUCK+ has designed and constructed the Tower House, a unique house that stands out from the forestry backdrop.
The Tower House is a vacation home that elevates its inhabitants to the level of the treetops, allowing them to have spectacular views of the nearby lake and mountains.
Not forgetting to be environmentally-conscious, this house has floor-to-ceiling windows that not only allow natural light to enter, but also allow full views of the gorgeous scenery.
Lots of clever additions adorn this house, such as incorporated storage space, and a smart insulated central core and stacking arrangement such that the house is cool in the summer and warm in the winter while being energy efficient.
