Located in Nagano, the construction belongs to Hiroki Tanabe, a talented architect from Japan. Here are some of the words of the project developers concerning the building: "This is a complex of a dental clinic and a dentist's residence, located in a beautiful farm village surrounded by rice fields and peach orchards. A concrete plate 300 millimetres thick forms zigzag structure, which makes up three shells and two open courtyards. As well as lying in alternate shifts, they face each other across the plate. Each shell has different functions inside, residence, clinic and waiting lounge.

It’s a fact that space has become a high priced commodity but when you say Tokyo, it’s even worse. A very good example is the latest project by Sou Fujimoto Architects, the House H. Meant as a way to perfectly balance volumes, spaces and light, the house follows on the Japanese minimalism with white walls and open spaces that give the idea of “large”. With a small pool at the ground floor, staircases that take you to the top terrace (which by the way, it’s not that safe for kids) and a transparent theme flowing everywhere, there is something about House H that gets the eye, even though it puts your privacy in jeopardy. Amazing!
