He Didn’t Design a House. He Sculpted a MANIFESTO.

What if your home wasn’t just architecture — but a sculpture you could live inside?

Hidden within a Canadian forest, the House of Sculptor by YH2 Architecture redefines what a home can be. Designed in collaboration with artist Jacek Jarnuszkiewicz, this vertical residence blurs the boundary between art, architecture, and nature.

Rising like an extension of the surrounding trees, the house explores height, light, and material as a continuous artistic experience. A dramatic vertical glass incision connects all floors, a sculptural staircase floats through space, and a three-story glass façade transforms the house into a glowing lantern at night.

Rather than simply occupying the landscape, this home grows from it — creating a living experience where space, form, and perception constantly interact.

This is not just a house. It’s a new way of experiencing architecture.
