Glass house, think you have nothing to hide?

Do you fancy the idea of living your private life in public? That's what the owners of the transparent house in Japan are doing. The 914 square-foot house, built by Architects Sou Fujimoto, was inspired by our tree-dwelling ancestors. The steel and glass structure allows everyone to see the life being lived inside. Whilst full sunlight is good for the soul, what about the lack of privacy?
