The compound consists of a guest house with bedrooms on a lower level, a screen porch, and future main house surrounding a raised pool terrace. An infinity edge spa and pool reflecting the fields and sky beyond is viewed from the interior living space. The exteriors are inspired by utilitarian farming materials, including rusted corten siding, wood planks, and galvanized tie rod "X" bracing.

Design team: Koen Klinkers, Will Galloway, Daniel Yu, Evan Taylor The core business of Liveperson is communication and connection over the internet. What they do is spatially invisible. And yet they are keen to work in a place that is obviously of Tokyo and Japan. For us it made the best sense to take inspiration from the crowded centers of the city like Shibuya crossing. At first blush it is a confusing place, but in reality the crossing is highly effective at communication, and ironically is a landmark for Tokyo-ites and visitors, used as a gathering place for meetings, often by those who have never been to the city before. A true contemporary space it is defined by people and activity rather than iconic objects. Caption Liveperson... More

This reconstructed house is located in an old residential neighborhood. The north side of the house faces a street and the other three sides are facing neighbors’ houses, which made it challenging for us to open up the space to the outside. Thus, our focus was to design a comfortable interior space.  The entrance and the living space are intentionally separated in a way that one can feel both outside and inside at the entrance. Our intention is to create a ”comfortable disorder” and a unique connection between interior, exterior, and somewhere in between.  The entrance has a kind of stillness reminiscent of a museum. A door to the living space cuts out from the entrance in a square shape, and the atmosphere cha... More

The style of this house is above all, elegant and practical. We put emphasis on the functionality of the objects, without any excess of details nor accessories. Each space was personalized, starting from the entrance hall to the children's rooms. The whole design has a harmonized unit, and contrast can be found only in the master bedroom and dining room, where red-claret was chosen for the wallpaper and curtains.   The space has a generous lobby, very bright due to the bright colors we picked for the decorative paint and the lighting objects. The minimalist and white furniture was custom-made and it consists of an elegant TV console with some storage drawers.    From the lobby you enter the living room through a double-gl... More

Located in a exceptional and privileged place, the houses of Asu are designed as single family houses that dance at the same rhythm. Due to the adjustment of the houses to the slope, they are a composition of volumes in movement that, being part of a family, maintain their own independence. This movement gives kindness to the volume, dinamism and visual richness. On one hand, every house is adapted to the needs of each owner. On the other hand, they have the soft and friendly finishes common. They also take advantage of the natural light that comes from the Cantabrian Sea.   The volumetric game seems essential. Its vertical and horizontal movement makes easier the adaptability to the slope of the terrain and allows the entry of natur... More
