Villa Saitan.Kyoto Japan.

【Villa Saitan】

I could not resist to publicly   my admiration for this project.

Incredible design by the Japanese architects of EASTERN Design Office in Nishioji-hachijo, Kyoto Japan.The project is entirely surrounded by reinforced concrete, giving a form that reminds you of visits to galactic travel from the television series Star Trek enterprise.Admittedly, the architect has completed the imagination in shaping the concrete, giving unrealistic curvature openings that give you the focus of an impressive plant carved in granite.The elongated semi-open spaces of the balconies are lost from the shell, leaving intact the exterior dominates the impressive façade of the building.The ideal proportions of the small height of the building and the austere, gray coloring, tying in harmony with the land and the neighboring houses, is perfect.I wish to abide unique in design and not copied from colleagues architects aspiring to be a small stone in the History of ArchitectureMichael Balaroutsos  Architect
