An award-winning “transparent architecture that blends into the forest,” recognized by architectural prizes in Japan and abroad. A one-of-a-kind masterpiece, featured repeatedly in the media.【The ultimate luxury—inside extraordinary architecture】 Wake up to dappled sunlight and birdsong. In season, squirrels may even stop by to say good morning from the 3rd-floor bedroom. Outside the windows stretches an untouched forest with nothing to block your view; at night, only silence and a sky full of stars remain.
