From other angles, it's practically invisible. "If you're just in the right place ... the house disappears," Hanley told Business Insider.

Hanley told Business Insider that one of his favorite details about the home is when the changing light outside integrates with the pool lights, which shift between blue, red, green, turquoise, and violet.

"If you're swimming or watching the news on TV while you're swimming, and the lights are changing — that's a great thrill," he said.
