House of the Day: Selections from the Venice Biennale - Boundary Window by Shingo Masuda + Katsuhisa Otsubo Architects

Japanese architects Shingo Masuda and Katuhisa Otsubo completed this conversion project in 2014 – transforming a two-storey house (see before image below) in the suburbs of Tokyo, into a spectacular photographic studio.

A large glass curtain covers, and extends beyond, the building’s facade. These windows are intentionally misaligned to the floors of the building – when the lower section of the window is opened, not only does the first floor window open, but so too does the lower portion of the second-floor window. This design initiates a new relationship between structure and window.

This week’s Houses of the Day were discovered by our Founding Director Albert Hill and Client Advisor Charlie Russell at the Venice Architecture Biennale 2016.
