House with a Formal Japanese Garden

Traditional Japanese garden designs integrated with window sightlines and walkable stone pathways. Introducing authentic garden residential examples.

Stylish Entrances

A curated collection of residential entrances featuring shoe closets and mudroom storage. Designed with consideration for family composition and daily circulation patterns, these spaces harmonize comfort and aesthetic appeal through thoughtful spatial expansion and lighting strategies. Showcasing exemplary entrances that serve as the welcoming face of the home with both functionality and refined design.

Through the lattice door you see the wall displaying the artist's works and, beyond it, the small courtyard garden (tsuboniwa).
