The main part of the house is laid out over two floors, with the main entrance leading directly into the upper floor from the rear. The house itself forms a long thin structure with a cantilevered balcony at one side, extending 6 m and resting on 3 steel poles. The main façade of the house faces south to the ocean while the balcony offers stunning views to the south and west. This feature, running in a continuous line, also lends a stylish graphic to the house. The lower floor also contains a small (35 m2) guest studio.

Three main construction materials have been used for this project: glass, black stained wood and oiled natural wood. The house is clad in black stained wood, with natural wood between the window partitions. For the bathroom, the absence of any adjacent houses allowed the exclusive use of glass for exterior construction, providing a shower with a view.
