Article source: acaa Houses built on a highland overlooking mountains in the south. While each housing unit is sufficiently large for a single woman, specific parts inside are compact, thus creating both a feeling of security and a sense of openness. More specifically, two opposite kinds of space coexist in each housing unit. The first kind is the open “exterior room” with a wide opening, whereas the second type is the closed “interior room” with no window facing outside.  Image Courtesy © Hiroshi Ueda

On the other hand, the walls of the interior room are painted purely white, with natural light coming through a top light from outside creating shadows, thus making the room a quiet space. All in all, the two rooms are like two sides of the same coin with complexly curved walls surround a bathroom, a washroom, a kitchen and a bedroom, neatly separating them.

Penetrating finish line horizontally around the building is strict, Representation of its outer wall and roof are to reconcile the conflict and fusion for plump hill.
