Windows that extend from the exterior to the center of the interior space. The Paad Architects Glass House, in continuation of the idea of Mega-Window, seeks to explore this element’s formal and programmatic capacities in organizing a villa.

The Mega-Window is a three-dimensional window that functions simultaneously as an air-conditioning machine. By incorporating misting at the entrance and an exhaust channel at the end, the Mega-Window creates a three-dimensional exterior space while maintaining airflow. It provides new openings and windows along its length.

The glass house is located on a farm, and its central space is encompassed by a circular border of servant spaces. The design features four mega-windows that create different living conditions. the interior space is constantly intersected by currents of outside air, plants, and programs, creating a new montage of reality.

One window is a continuous extension from the bathing space outside to the sleeping area inside. Another window extends the garden and vegetables, intersecting with the kitchen. The third window stretches from the outdoor pet zone to the middle of the space next to the living room. The last window is a continuation of the access road and forms the entrance of the glass house.
