This beautiful house, located in Minami-Boso, Chiba (Japan), is the work of  Kiyonobu Nakagame & Associates. The villa was designed for the clients who live in Tokyo, and is located at about 2 hours from Tokyo in Boso Peninsula east of Tokyo. The design is characterized by clean lines, and a lot of wide space, and to make things even more interesting the site is facing the pacific ocean while having mountains as a background. Being surrounded by the natural landscape, and the great views of the site this place is like a piece of paradise, a great place for relaxation and meditation. And if you don’t believe me, just scroll down and try to imagine yourself in the last picture. - Via

Located in Jingumae, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, Sin Den was desgined by Klein Dytham Architecture. This project was carried out in the area for a young couple and a baby as their living space with their hair salon. This cutting-edge’ salon attracts those who have their own style and seeks a perfect hideaway.Maybe you’ve noticed that wall tattoos and stickers are not a very hot trend in interior design, and this black box with strong graphic images in white lines is a great example of innovation. From the exterior the house/salon is meant to stand out and draw attention to itself. Filling the 50 square meter site with what is essentially a black box, the designers were trying to create a strong graphic image on the otherwise simple and massive box - displaying the creativity and uniqueness of the home’s inhabitants. - Via - myninjaplease

We talk a lot here on Freshome about bedrooms, and bookcases. Today Point Architects from Tokyo combined a bed with a bookcase and the result was called the Uroko House. The incredible bookcase completely surrounds this bed, making him looks like an igloo made of books. Here is the step by step project of how the Uroko House was created, and I’ve got these pictures from Flickr. The final results looks good, but unfortunately is not to practical, and takes a lot of space. Anyway I’m sure that little kids will still love this project.

The 63.02° house was designed by Schemata Architecture Office, a house built at 63.02° to the road. The house in Nakana, Tokyo, was completed in December and has a floor space of 71.4 m2. Sharp angels are everywhere on this one of a kind rentable home that seems to have carved a place in the neighborhood. From these pictures the house looks very modern, but the space is very very small, I’m sure that in a house like this you’ll have to organise every inch. Finnaly this is a great example of how you can use a very small piece of land in a crowded city to make a place to live. - Via - Dezeen

The Fudamae Apartment is designed by ISSHO Architects an architectural design office based in Tokyo and they got my attention with this apartment window’s design that has an unusual shape. The Fudomae apartment’s design makes the most of a limited volume while creating a comfortable urban living space . Each 18 sqm unit fits a living room, kitchen, bathroom and storage. The tight arrangement is transformed into a design expression, particularly through the location and shape of the window, which designates the placement of the bed and other furniture. The window’s angle and height corresponds to both the interior of the room and the scenery outside, linking the Japanese single lifestyle and the natural environment.
