It is designed by by Swedish architect firm Elding Oscarson even though the thoughtful design and style looks more like work of Japanese architects. As exterior as interior the design is minimalist and simple. Three thin slabs are projected into the open volume, softly dividing its functions. [Elding Oscarson]

Minimalist House H in Tokyo by Sou Fujimoto Architects

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!
