Designing a house on a cliff is one of the most challenging designs for architects. The villa form is inspired by origami. Folded white surfaces smoothly bend together to characterize this unique villa. An artificial waterfall has been added to create a fascinating atmosphere in the outdoor terraces around the infinity pool.
