of creation
Comprising a main house, a spa, two guest houses
and a tea house, this mountainside retreat property
nestled among sulfur hot springs faces the Mount Fuji.
In collaboration with the architect Kengo Kuma who
designed the infrastructures, this place interprets
elements of traditional Japanese houses using
modern technics revealing a savage and preserved
nature. The landscape made of stones and water
is placed at the heart of this project and simply
embellished by essential shapes and materials.
The colour palette derives from Shodo (Japanese
calligraphy), a declination of white walls and
black stained woods custom made furniture
The
shapes
appear
to
be
spacious
and
generous,
in
line
with
Liaigre
signature
proportions and comfort, yet fitting with the
delicacy and discretion of the Japanese culture.
