House O by Sou Fujimoto Architects

A weekend house for a couple located on a rocky coast two hours drive from Tokyo. They are planning to settle down this place in the future. 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. All the required spaces, entrance, living area, dining area, kitchen, bed room, Japanese style room, study room and bath room are arranged in this continuous one room.

So in the celebration of our 1th year this would be a future office building for us. Where we could enchant our creativity and grow, thats a nice vision. Then again vision are goals that you can never really reach but you will not stop aiming for it.

Not quite as mystic and hugh as Iron Mans little rocky retreat but i find it cosy, a house with a feeling. When you park that beautiful hybrid car of yours next to the house, this is what it looks like.

The house is a 1 stories and approximately 130 sq m, the garden are is an additional 550 sq m.
