About Fuwaku Konutsal

Yapı, geleneksel tekniklerin ve zanaatkarlığın modern bir yorumudur. Eğimli çatının derin saçakları ve ahşap kafes işçiliğinin doğrusal izlenimi, boyalı duvarlarla birleşerek huzurlu bir dış mekan atmosferi yaratır. İç mekan, yatay ve dikey çizgilerden oluşan altı katmanlı kasetli tavan ile geleneksel boyalı duvarların güzelliği ve özgün yapısal güzellik, Japon estetik anlayışını ve olağanüstü tasarımı ifade eder.
