The house 's lower storey is clad with reflective paneling . These mirrored surfaces appear as an extension of the forest floor , with opaque areas stacked above . 'The bottom level includes also a sheltered terrace in a shade of dark brown wood that matches the surrounding earth . The second floor appears to float above its mirrored base , a levitating box that will hover in the thick forest . ' Scroll down for video .
