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. To preserve nature as much as possible, only three trees were felled during construction. Put power and screens aside for a while—and do nothing. That time is the greatest luxury here.【Up to 3 bedrooms—ideal for multiple families】 Perfect for a quiet weekend for a couple and their dog, or for 2–3 families / 2–3 generations traveling together, or gatherings of 4–6 friends. By adding the optional detached annex “Ya no Ie,” you can expand to a 3-bedroom layout and accommodate up to 10 guests.
