This weekend house is composed of a glass box surmounted by a large woven plywood dome. Four structural plywood boards create the interlocking unit that makes up the woven dome. As the weave is covered by insulation and fiber reinforced plastic, it can be seen only from the inside, similar to ceilings prevalent in traditional Japanese houses.
