I'm neither an architect nor engineer – though this design has aesthetically pleasing traits, it appears to be prone to wind damage with such disproportionately large overhangs. The exaggerated roof also looks placed too high above the second floor decks to provide shelter from sun or rain.

This would be absolutely fabulous in Japan. For the time I lived there I lived in an apartment about this size and this makes use of space much better than the apartment I lived in did. Japanese homes and apartments typically have to make the best use of space since it’s so limited in the densely populated city of Tokyo.

The only suggestion I have is cutting the roof back a bit.
