Perfect Place
An oversized sectional in the living room provides the perfect place for the whole family to kick back during movie nights. "The clients fought to have a big Italian couch," Ashizawa laughs. "I told them, ‘okay, but I get to choose the color.’" The soothing grey Minotti was the compromise. #dwell #modernjapanesehomes #moderndesign

"From the city to the house, there’s a big gap. You need to have a space to adjust to the feeling," says Ashizawa. The long form of the entry corridor does just that, taking cues from Japanese temple architecture to create a moment of intimacy before the awe. "The house is lucky enough to have kind of a magical space." #dwell #modernjapanesehomes #moderndesign

Climb the steel staircase from the first floor to the living, dining, and kitchen area, which open on to a small terrace with a private garden.

Staircase Design
Ashizawa’s background is in steelwork, so getting the staircase right was critical. It needed to be structurally sound, but not so big and bulky it would block the light from the patio. The clever use of a support rod in the middle of the structure allows for sturdy but lightweight steps. #dwell #modernjapanesehomes #moderndesign
