About Fuwaku Residenziale

L'edificio rappresenta un'interpretazione moderna di tecniche e maestria artigianale tradizionali. Le ampie gronde del tetto spiovente e l'impressione lineare del graticcio in legno, unite alle pareti dipinte, creano un'atmosfera esterna serena. L'interno è caratterizzato da un soffitto a cassettoni a sei strati composto da linee orizzontali e verticali, e la bellezza delle pareti dipinte tradizionali insieme alla singolare bellezza strutturale esprimono un senso estetico giapponese e un design eccezionale.

The linearity and rhythm of the deep eaves and the wooden lattice covering the exterior walls, combined with the painted walls, provide a sense of calm and security. Inside, the six layers of latticework form a three-dimensional structure that, in combination with the painted walls, expresses the Japanese aesthetic of beauty of use and the charm of the structural beauty of woodwork.
