So let's say you're an architect and what you really like to design is single-family houses.

Houses with flair, with distinctive, maybe even avant-garde features, and you want to design

houses that will actually get built.

So if that's who you are, then for you, Utopia might be Japan.

So they make a very, very weird looking or avant-garde looking houses.

Well, one of... it's hard to describe, but quite avant-garde radical designs.

Strange looking, weird looking.

Living in the home is like climbing around a jungle gym or a matrix.

One of them was about four or five stories, but one wall was cut in such a way that the

floor space at the fifth level was bigger than fourth and the third in a second.

And it looked very unstable.

Of course, it's highly eye-catching.

They don't have handrails and stairways and balconies.

Three-story building can be built on maybe 500 square feet.

They have walls that can open entirely exposing the house to the outside.

The design can be very, very sharp or really, really unique.

And homes that have no windows at all.

And they were covered in this textured material that was at least to me, it was a complete

eyesore.

Or maybe for some modern artist, it was something to be proud of.

Okay, so if you are an architect, not only can you go wild with the design of Japanese

houses, but even more important, there's a lot of work.
