Upon entering the float home, two exterior walls of channel glass are visible and allow abundant natural light and also maintain privacy.

When walking up the stairs, a large window provides views of a small terrace with a barbeque (located off the kitchen), and a ladder that provides access to the roof deck.

A wood slat ceiling in the living room and kitchen provides contrast to the surrounding white ceiling and walls. White touches have also been used in the kitchen, like on the island and cooktop area.

The living and dining areas open up to a small terrace, perfect for enjoying a drink while watching the sunset.

Frosted glass hides the toilet from the rest of the bathroom, and the flooring is made up of limestone tiles.
