White Cave House is a minimalist residence located in Kanazawa, Japan, designed by Takuro Yamamoto Architects. The architect saved the entire residence, every out and in, a stark white. One of the first traits of the home is the upstairs terrace that overlooks the courtyard, which may also be purely white. The reasoning behind the determine was as a consequence of how the home was a clear monolithic slate, and – by the use of trial and error – the architect would take quite a few gadgets out of the home to finish up with its final design.

The inside the home is tucked away from public view, and solely a implausible minimalist courtyard may be seen from the inside. The courtyard has an uncovered ceiling allowing an plentiful amount of pure delicate to bounce off the surfaces of its white partitions and flooring to supply ample lighting for the rooms inside, all with out overbearing the world with an extreme quantity of direct daylight.

White Cave House reaffirms my notion that pure magnificence is uncovered by way of the one varieties. Even the slightest particulars are revealed and magnified in the direction of such a minimalist backdrop. For occasion, the picket from the furnishings and flooring nearly seems to enterprise outwardly from the show as a consequence of their sharp distinction from the white partitions. I moreover love the utterly clear courtyard that comes with nothing larger than a single plant.
