House in Mukouyama

By TSC Architects

“A 1,180 square ft single family residence in Ichinomiya City, Japan. The two story home is constructed primarily from reinforced concrete. The materiality gives a strong character to the residential design as the concrete creates a harsh and bold exterior. The architects do not attempt to soften that effect as the concrete stays exposed throughout the interiors. Slices of light illuminate the hard wood floors bringing a touch of warmth to the structure.” [via]
