The square-shaped architecture is the recent work of Bureau Ira Koers from Netherland. It simply breaks away the style of a standard home. The rooms are arranged to form one giant square in the center, and they all open to a single central hallway which wraps around the entirety of the house.
The floor-to-ceiling windows surrounding all sides allow natural light to flood into the space while the shutters are there to keep it out if the residents desired.
