It would be like entering through a convex lens...

I think it would look better in a public space (is it? I don't know), for a home it seems like kind of a massive waste of space however.

very cool!

Something about this makes me think of an airport, or a public aquarium.

Well, if you are going to go for this extreme modern architecture, you really shouldn't ruin it with a lot of old fashioned, traditional decor (grandfather clock, wall to wall carpet, weird smocked child sculpture).

Very creative!

It reminds me of a hobbit house, so viewed in that vein, the grandfather clock doesn't look out of place.

Nothing personal--it's not my thing. It feels more like a submarine that it does a home to me in this picture. And the elements don't work together for me.

I think it looks beautiful... not a waste of space at all with that little seat to rest on and to look towards the outside.

I think we'd see how the door integrates a lot better than we can here if there were more pictures of the house. The upstairs ceiling and window curves give a hint.

And the chinese have some circular portals---this one photo suggests a fascinating place----

Interesting but...not for me. I took me a while to figure out where the door was, I was trying to figure out why the front door was so narrow until I realized it was a clock.

cripes! You don't want to have anything to drink when you walk through there!

Yeah, definitely the entrance to a modern hobbit hole.

But hobbit holes rule, so that's fine.
