A MARVEL OF COMPOSITIONAL SKILL!

A compositional masterpiece is designed by the Architect Show in Japan. It is a dwelling that plays a sculptural function in the growing rural region of Isahaya City, Nagasaki, while a simple abode is waiting for the family inside… Consisting of four distinct masses, two of which are thin and have flat roofs, and two of which are bold and have slanting eaves and walls, the mansion is a remarkable architectural building that sticks out in the tranquil ambiance of the rural setting. The masses are staggered in elevation and design, with each one seamlessly complimenting the other. The finishes offer a level of play, with contrasting and striking finishes, such as rough black and red wood, which juxtapose with the stark white walls. The front facade is punctuated by relatively small apertures that are elegant and in harmony with the overall composition. On the other hand, the rear facade has a vertical louvered facade that allows light to permeate the home. Onto entering, one is greeted by an abundance of skylight that falls upon a court with plantation and penetrates the areas of the house. This creates a contrasting atmosphere that takes over once one is inside. Both the living and dining areas extend out onto a terrace that is illuminated by the sky. There is a play of light that is introduced by the terrace balcony, which is shielded around the edge by wooden verticals. This balcony also provides a location for private events. Despite the fact that the more private areas of the house, such as the master bedroom, the children’s bedroom, and the bathrooms on the upper level, are provided with adequate diffused skylight from the courtyard, which ensures privacy and security, the wooden verticals that form the outer boundary wall shower the space with ample natural light, casting interesting chiaroscuro elements across the spaces. The harmonic combination of semi-open and constructed with pockets of green creates pleasant areas while simultaneously delivering a feeling of openness to the house. This is accomplished via the harmonious design of spaces. The living room is furnished with exquisite furnishings, and channels in the ceiling provide ambient lighting for both the living and eating areas. The sloping ceiling and wooden verticals, which are all finished in red cedar, provide a sense of drama to the living space. For the purpose of creating comfortable places, the bedrooms and baths have been completed in a blend of tones that are dark and subtle, and the lighting has been kept to a minimum. The house satisfies the family’s criteria for a home that is both exquisite and modest, and the completed building is a testament to iconic architecture in its surroundings.
