Today’s ideabook brings you a one-of-a-kind design for a home in Nova Scotia that breaks all the architectural conventions. Taking place in scenic countryside, the plans for this house are extraordinary. 

Brought to us by internationally recognised architects 4D Studio, this place redefines the single-storey home with a brilliant layout that holds a few surprises up its sleeve.

A horizontal layout with vast amounts of space, the rooms and utilities in this design have for the most part been spread across a single level with an angled roof bringing a touch of excitement to the design.

What an entrance

The beautiful sloping shape of the building looks more like the design of a museum than a traditional house; a real departure from the norm. The entrance alone is a sci-fi worthy modern wonder. The design makes the building look like it’s balancing on the top of the boulders and doorway with the front half hanging over the staircase providing shelter and shade.

From up top the overhanging platform also double as beautiful outdoor patio/balcony where you can enjoy the surrounding landscape.


This staircase leads you into the house and up to the living/dining area. The open-plan design means plenty of room as well as spectacular high ceilings. Large windows take up the long sides of the home, letting in plenty of light.

Rear of the house

Towards the rear of the house, things are split into two levels with a staircase leading from the living room to the higher level bedroom. The rear side of the home is made almost entirely of glass letting in huge amounts of light and making the room feel at one with the environment.

Downstairs another bedroom enjoys a similar layout with space being allocated for the bathroom.


Outdoor Space

Off to the side of this masterpiece of a home is a lofted patio/deck area, perfect for enjoying summer evenings or hosting guests.

The cherry on the top? 4D Studio have even thought to create space underneath the home to park cars.
