Winter can be a rough season. To address this harsh reality, architects have developed methods for designing homes that are partially, or fully, built into greenhouses.

Constructed in Sweden in 2015, this three-bedroom abode features solar panels, as well as a glass wall and roof that function as a greenhouse. Not only does this make chillier weather more bearable, but it also is perfect for growing fruits and vegetables year-round.

Take a peek inside this modern home with a twist.

The greenhouse covers the roof and one side of the house.

The roof terrace acts as a second living area.

The $522,000 house looks out over a lake and offers sweeping views from various rooms.
