Terra Cascade is a five story detached house built on a hillside in Taipei, Taiwan. The design uses interlocking volumes and rotating balconies to guide natural light and support interaction between floors. Low carbon stone and renewable timber form the layered facade, while steel staircases and reinforced concrete columns provide strength. Inside, flexible rooms and smart glass allow the plan to adapt to multi generational needs. A rooftop terrace offers wide views of the surrounding forest.
