WHITE + WOOD ACCENT
A seven-story rental apartment building in Yoyogi-Uehara, a high-end residential area on the uptown side of the city.
This apartment building, located just past the stylish shops lined along the station, has a simple white-based modern exterior with wooden frames as accents.
The outdoor staircase visible from the front is designed with a glass box reflecting the sky, blending into the surroundings.
The lower part of the base is made of aluminum panels, creating a cool and stylish entrance that harmonizes with the simple modern design of the upper part.
The white-based design is continued in the interior of the entrance, forming a relationship with the exterior facade, while the accent gray stone tiles and gold joints in the white tiles create a human-scale sense of depth in the small entrance space and a refined, modern facade.
