On the edge of the Yatsugatake Mountains in Nagano, Japan, Kidosaki Architects Studio have designed a tranquil and minimalistic home that makes the best use of the stunning views.
The architects add: “Located on a sloping mountain ridge at the foot of the Yatsugatake Mountains, this house was designed on a piece of land that offers spectacular views that are rarely known. Seeking for the best in picturesque scenery, the client took up residence in Tateshina, and spent many years searching for the ideal site for building his house. Inevitably, the main aim of this project is to meet the client’s expectations to incorporate these stunning views in to the design.”
The use of wood, unpainted concrete and marble in the home only serve to reinforce the flow of the home to reflect on the land.
