House in Kataokayama by Yoshihiro Yamamoto
Nestled on the verdant hillside along the south of Japan’s Yamato River, the House in Kataokayama stands as a brilliant testament to modern architectural design. Crafted by the esteemed architect, Yoshihiro Yamamoto, this modern residence, constructed in 2020, seamlessly blends the demands of functional living with an aesthetic appeal that is breathtakingly unique.
Housed within the tranquil setting of Niro, a region known for its picturesque landscapes, the House in Kataokayama artfully integrates with the surrounding natural beauty. Built over a base comprising a bedroom and closet, the main floor of the house is dedicated to a spacious living room and sanitary facilities. The intriguing design is crowned with a large gable roof, serving a triad of functions; it ensures an easy approach from the parking lot to the entrance, captures the awe-inspiring view from the living room, and ingeniously allows the flow of light and wind through a side slit.
