Tower House by Japanese Architecture Firm

Tower House by Japanese Architecture Firm

Designed by Japanese Ks Architects lead by architect Hiroaki Kimura, Tower House is a long and lean home design characterized by its minimalist white exterior with curious circular windows that give it a whimsical appeal. And if you think this contemporary tower in Nagahama-shi, Shiga, looks cool from the outside, just wait until you set foot inside! The modern holes that distinguish the unusual facade create a really interesting motif inside, which is repeated in the circular ceiling pot lights and round cut-outs at the base of the staircase. A clean, white palette inside puts the main focus on the house unique architectural elements such as the softly rounded walls, the light-flooded staircase leading up to a small terrace, and of course, the windows.
