Article source: Uchida Architect Design Office This building is a weekend residence for a husband and a wife who loves to go climbing. It stands on east facing slope inside a national park, where grand nature can be viewed in all directions. I designed this building by a concept to divide required indoor spaces from the collection of perpendicularly crossing independent walls.  Image Courtesy © Hiroyuki Kawano

Moreover, the outer scene one can see between those walls changes intricately by moving around the room.

To the end, the main cast of the space is the outer scene, and the perpendicularly crossing walls controlling the outer scene are meant to play a supporting role.
