Over the weekend, I came across this nice list compiled by the nice folks at Frame Publishers. As I scrolled through the wonky, urban houses I thought that so many were worth posting, I might as well post about the entire list. In describing the menagerie of houses, Lydia Parafianowicz says that Japanese houses are “quirky, modern and often unexpected.” I couldn’t say it better myself, except to add that some of the unexpected forms are thanks to Japanese architects’ skills to hone and articulate a kind of site-specific intuition.
