Mountain Research

One of my top picks in my Tokyo Design Guide is cow books, a very attractive alternative bookshop in the heart of trendy Nakameguro. The interior was designed by architect Shin Ohori, a good friend of the founder of Cow Books, Kobayashi Setsumasa. Anyway, it turns out that the wilderness buff recently completed Mountain Research, a log cabin/weekend house or something. Unfortunately, there’s no accompanying text to explain the work but it looks awesome! Totally makes me want to go camping!
