The PLAIN WORKS-designed home can be found at the end of a cul-de-sac in a housing site in Yogin. The location is secluded and calm, with the only foot traffic coming from other residents of the area. The home itself is split into [three connected levels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-of-seven-floors), with the basement being converted into a garage and the deck above it housing the garden. The most striking element of the house seems to be the [three-roof design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ridge-house). This particular design allows a visual separation between the rooms, but also makes the entire building incredibly eye-catching.
