Belanda House is another level of inspiration when it comes to excellent architecture. I salute to the Architect who had a brilliant idea in conserving nature while building such an extraordinary house in the middle of the forest. To the owners (husband and wife and family), cheers to all of you guys!

Beautiful. The first time i saw this house in CRA, i was inlove with it! thank you for featuring such a wonderful piece of fine architecture.

Breathtaking!!! Love the house, the nature that surrounds it and all the collected art pieces. Beautiful! 💚

The Architects and team behind this awesome project have the full knowledge of Malaysia's geography given the fact that the house at the centre of a forest and has open areas which are totally exposed to wet weather conditions; there's a greater chance that the area is not prone to typhoons paths; but on bright weather it really looks spectacular as been showcased.

I always thought houses facing a sea or a lake can only be great and provide natural view. But this house blew my mind. Very nice view and great work by Owner and team.

This is great architecture fitting so nicely into the beautiful landscape. The house is marvellous. The video presentation is perfect.

wow.....That's exactly the desription of my dream house...nature and also the skyline view...

Beautiful architecture...... and briliant design by architects. I live in tropical region. Thus I know how extreme rainy season and sunlight can be there in malaysia. I wonder how architects tackled those problems in open design of house.

I only have 3 word...WOW!. Such a well thought out design. Despite multi levels which tends to add complexity and needs to be handle with care, there is harmony and continuity in the layout. The bridge brings the house together and complete the wholeness of the design. Wow...

Alex, I love the way you found to bring to us this spectacular architecture. You make us believe with you video that architecture isn't just about conceiving buildings, but giving people the way of living espectacular life

hands down the most stunning modern tropical home I've seen

Beautiful! I think this house checks the brief checklist, bravo!!! Just want to know, though, how does one clean all that glass, especially since I would think it rains a lot in Malaysia?

Beautiful design, integrating the natural elements in it’s construction. Scenic view is also lovely. \¥/

The concept, construction is just out of the world!

It is a really amazing home. I love it.

Beautiful home! I rarely like modern architecture since it usually feels cold and sterile, but not this. This home feels refreshing. My only concern now is it doesn't seem suitable for retirement due to the many stairs. I'm hoping they just forgot to show us the elevator.

Genuine question for @design seed What about bugs? Wouldnt the owners get a lot of bugs since they're in the forest?

Very calm , relaxing and beautiful home 🏠👍💐

This is absolutely breathtaking!!! ❤

This is amazing! But if i lived there i probably won't use the outdoor space much because i'm afraid of bugs and insects. And a house that close to the forest. No way hahah

As beautiful as that is I kept thinking how much labor would be involved with keeping it clean and in good repair. For example there is probably at least one person on staff who comes home from work smelling like windex every day. Are there storms or inclement weather there? Thanks to the family for sharing it was a great tour.

Honest question here - how do you manage rain and especially mosquitos? The upper deck of the living pavillion seems to have sliding windows and the lower deck seems to be completely open.

Mosquitoes are weak flyers. They couldn't fly from the jungle floor to the upper deck. In the case they got swept up by the wind to the upper deck, the ceiling fans will make it hard for them to control their flying. Their best chances to survive at the upper decks are by hiding from the winds generated by the fan and the jungle.
