Japanese Wooden Houses courtyard, multi-level decks and a loftWe just love this Japanese wooden house in Wakura, designed by Seiichi Kubo, Yoshinobu Kagiyama and Mine Muratsuji of Japanese architecture firm Archivi Architects & Associates. Like the exterior, this wood-clad home (its made mainly of locally grown Japanese cedar and Japanese cypress) is too dominated by natural wood inside. Modern glass-walls floods interiors with lots of natural light, illuminating the open-to-above main living area encompassing the kitchen and dining area, which is overlooked by a second-storey loft. From floor to ceiling (ceilings are clad in lauan plywoods), this wooden house has a distinctly rustic feel to it, with privacy being one of its main design features your own great escape without ever leaving home. Make your way up the stairs and along the second-storey catwalk leading out to a patio overlooking the homes central atrium, an open, landscaped spot enclosed by sliding glass walls that blur the boundary between inside and out. Every floor, every room has access to a deck space to make the most of nature. Located overlooking parkland and Wakaura Bay, a local Japanese landmark, this urban home enjoys amazing views. photo credit: Yutaka Kinumakitrendir Create Date :30 พฤศจิกายน 2553 Last Update :30 พฤศจิกายน 2553 1:24:24 น.
