The designer’s initial task was to plan a building surrounded on all sides by neighboring structures. The property couldn’t even afford a micro-corridor. However, the business card of the master is to protect his clients from outside prying eyes and intrusion of others into the world of private homes, as well as ensuring the maximum amount of light and air into the room.
Therefore, the design of windows in the house is designed in such a way that the light gets inside, but outsiders do not see what is happening in the mansion. The access to the property is very compact and aesthetically pleasing, and even allows you to plant a miniature lawn with vegetation. By means of supporting eaves of the first floor the balcony of the second floor was formed, which partly replaced the absence of the yard.
Virtually the entire facade is clad in natural wood, which made the building stand out among all others in the area, making it more natural and warm. Smooth plaster on the interior walls, painted in warm pastel colors. The rooms also feature a lot of wood, which can be found everywhere – on the floor, on the walls, and in the furniture.
The architect has created a solid rear for his customers – a minimum of artificial materials and a maximum of comfort and warmth. And residents can take pleasure in the turquoise pool, where they can throw off all the fatigue they accumulated after a day in the stuffy city.
Looks like the perfect retreat. I’m curious to know more about the design and concept behind this serene haven. How did Show Co. manage to create a haven of peace amidst the hustle and bustle of Fukuoka? Is it open to the public? And what are some of the unique features that set it apart from other urban spaces?
