Considering that Supersudaka calls this the Kiltro House - referring to a crossbred dog - due to the "bastardized design", thanks to the changing program, site, building permits, contractors, and even the view, I'd say it's a pretty cohesive project!

The result: a mix, a bastardized design, a fusion, like a crossbreed dog, in Chilean:
A Kiltro.
