the home features a dramatic “stage” above the kitchen that pours in tons of sunlight as if someone rolled up the awnings on the sun
Ever since Bunzo Ogawa completed his public restrooms project in 2010 I’ve been a huge fan of his fantastic work. The architect’s latest home, which was just uploaded to his website, is no exception. Titled “Light Stage House” and located in Hiroshima, the home features a dramatic “stage” above the kitchen that pours in tons of sunlight as if someone rolled up the awnings on the sun.
The rounded details of the home and its curvaceous figure give it a futuristic spaceship-quality. What a great space to totally lose yourself in.
The home was completed in mid-2011 but just recently uploaded to the architects’ website. Despite being built on just a 30-tsubo plot of land – a little over 1000 sq ft – it’s impressive what the architect dud to give it such an airy feel and so much sunlight.
