ATAMI | NIIZEKI STUDIO

This is the architecture formed from the landscape ; symbiosis of powerful nature and restful human beings. The architecture is located on the top of mountain where commands   a view of the Pacific Ocean and deep mountains. The black box is   quietly lying on the grassy mound platform.  The basement is mostly under the ground, the north head appears from   mountainside with a large hole. The grand floor level is covered   with the turf mound continuing the dynamic landscape. The upper   floor looks like the black box overhangs steep slope looking over the   panoramic view. The mounded platform which has impressing appearance functions a   counter weight of the 8m cantilevered upper floor. The landscape is   forming the architecture.
