SANU 2nd Home Nasu 1st

A second home where you can live in harmony with nature, bathed in dappled sunlight.

SANU 2nd Home is “another home” where your mind and body can truly unwind and your senses open up. Step back from the pace of city life, feel nature with all five senses, and live by your own hands in a second home. Among the SANU 2nd Home locations across Japan, Nasu 1st is set in a forest of broadleaf trees with the Nasu mountain range rising nearby. Enjoy ever-changing seasonal scenery, and explore the area’s cafés, restaurants, and local shops. This white-vessel-inspired architecture is an eco-conscious cabin designed to live in harmony with the environment. Its honeycomb-inspired form and large windows that frame the surrounding landscape are defining features. The space comes to life through borrowed views of nature across the seasons reflected in those windows, and through seasonal wildflowers arranged in a dining-room vase. In the morning, quietly grind coffee beans on the terrace as sunlight filters through the trees. In the afternoon, play a seasonal music playlist and let yourself sink into sound. In the evening, toast with natural wine while listening to insects sing. At night, add logs to the fire and lose yourself in thought. How you spend your time is entirely up to you. Find what feels just right for you.
