We are back with more pictures on its unusual architecture and with something extra regarding its interior design. The project is called Reflection of Mineral¯ and belongs to Japanese architect Yasuhiro Yamashi from Atelier Tekuto. Located not far from the center of Tokyo, the contemporary 480 sq ft (44 sq m) residence breaks the architecture rules its surroundings. The amazing abstract shape was designed very efficiently, making use of the little space. Every angle of site brings with it a different view. The interior’s original shapes and dimensions are determined by the architecture and the arrangements had to be done accordingly. You can check out the final results in the pictures below. Enjoy!

This beautiful home was under a recent renovation from Kidosaki Architects Studio. The company is famous for they works, and especially for the fact that they manage to perfectly integrate traditional Japanese items into contemporary residences. Y Residence is such an example. With a large panoramic view over the Pacific Ocean and situated on a hill, the owners of this place wanted a make-over that would imply a limited budget. As a result, the architects thought of a design that takes the colors and feel of the ocean and integrates them in the architecture of the house, still holding on to the traditional decorative items. The most fascinating thing for us is the outdoor terrace, a great place for relaxation which features spectacular ocean views.-via Yatzer
