Maibara House is a minimalist residence located in Shiga, Japan, designed by ALTS Design Office. The building is characterized by a timber structure that overlooks the garden. The front facade of the larger white volume does not contain windows in order to maintain the privacy of the residents. The clients wanted a balance between privacy and a connection with the outdoors. The timber volume features large sliding glazed doors that completely open up the space.
