The A-shaped house was presented by Thilina Liyanage, an architect from Sri Lanka. The building is located on a boulder overlooking the sea.

The frame of the triangle house is made of metal beams, complemented by metal and glass plates. To go upstairs, you can use one of several stairs.
Irregular panoramic windows are responsible for scenic views. They are hollowly scattered throughout the house, recalling rebellion, freedom and determination to change the world around.

Inside, the author of the project made the most of the tree. This helped to draw a parallel between the residential part of the building and the nature that surrounds the house. The panoramic windows echoed this.

From the outside, it may seem that the house is unstable. However, it is not. Metal beams are drilled into the surface of the boulder and additionally concreted. Neither wind, nor waves, nor even the risk of mountain earthquakes should scare future residents.

The A-shaped house is currently up for sale. But before buying, realtors offer to rent it for a short time. This will help to appreciate all the advantages of a distant life, as well as the functionality of a seemingly ascetic design.

As for the boulder on which the house stands, it is quite stable. Before the construction of the metal frame of Thilina Liyanage, preparatory work was carried out - soil testing, strengthening.

The section "House, interior" contains more than 7 thousand lots for multi-storey and private houses. The offers of sellers on the OXO website will help to equip housing as comfortable and functional as possible.
