Located in Japan, this house is a private commision. The following is description of this project by the architect.-
The site faces the sea and has deep depth. And it inclines toward the sea by the vertical interval like 2M. We arranged the house in the center of the site. The plane shape of the house is wedge to spread towards the sea.
We planned the first floor as a place to enjoy a garden. The part facing the garden of the half underground is a glass window. By it, a slope of the ground just appears as form of the openings. The exterior floor covered with the white gravel. Since it is surrounded by the outside wall, outside can also be felt like the interior of a room. By place to stay and movement at that time, relations with a person and the ground surface change.

This project is a part of a National program on tourist routes commissioned by the Norwegian Highway Department. The pictures actually say more than a thousand words. Finished December 2005. Official opening June 2006.

By coupling indigenous techniques and materials with modern design technologies and aesthetics GBA has created this intimate double pavilion for a writer in Costa Rica.
A main studio space, with library, writing desk and grand piano, is the writer’s daytime space. The pavilion’s wooden structure, sourced from local timber, sits on a simple foundation of wooden stilts on small concrete pad foundations. Roof beams of up to 10 m long and 355 mm deep allow for an interior with no vertical columns. The mono-pitched roof elevates towards the sea shore, while the interior is through ventilated via a completely louvred glazed end façade.

The elastic geometries of this house, stretch to reach the edges of the site and its astonishing outlooks and vantage points. The architects Durbach Block, have designed a house clinging to the edge of a cliff, they have it jutting out over the ocean with a 70-metre drop below. It is not simply how the Holman House captures and frames the Pacific and the coast that makes this building so interesting, it is the mastery of space. There is a great interplay of surfaces, combining fineness and roughness, creating subtle contrasts.

Not Much To Say but Check Out The Marc Jacobs Lego Belt, I love it.

A weekend house for a couple located on a rocky coast two hours drive from Tokyo. The site is a rocky stretch facing the Pacific Ocean with approaches sloping down to the water level. The characteristic of its plan, imagined like the branches of a tree, is a continuous one room.
