House in Shibuya

A renovation of a glass-clad condominium in the city center, where reflections of urban greenery permeate the interior. The project transformed the unit into an open studio by removing partition walls, opting instead for a layout subtly defined by spatial distance, shifting sightlines, and low-profile furniture. To foreground the client’s art collection, the design process began by stripping away redundant elements. Tactile materials like stone, wood, and metal were then introduced alongside products with subtle color to avoid a sterile, museum-like atmosphere. The goal was to create a space where art is lived with and enjoyed daily, achieving comfort through the seamless fusion of uniform architectural composition, product design, and artistic expression.
