The Design

About Fuwaku Residensyal

Ang bilding usa ka modernong interpretasyon sa tradisyonal nga mga teknik ug hanas nga paggama. Ang lawom nga mga alimpulos sa nag-aliwa nga atop ug ang linya nga impresyon sa rehas nga kahoy, inubanan sa pinintalan nga mga bungbong, naghimo ug malinawon nga atmospera sa gawas. Ang interyor adunay unom ka lut-od nga coffered ceiling nga gilangkob sa pahalang ug patindog nga mga linya, ug ang katahom sa tradisyonal nga pinintalan nga mga bungbong uban sa talagsaon nga katahom sa istruktura nagpahayag sa Hapon nga pagbati sa estetika ug talagsaon nga disenyo.
