Tsuyoshi Michigami of VuA creates a masterful work in his SI.House. The lines are clean, the paint ultra white and the small portals reminiscent of a ship create whimsical patterns at night and small frames for viewing the world outside.

Amenities are concentrated in a single area of the home giving way for wide open living and recreation. Both the entry and courtyard become special places with their narrow volumes but celebrated height. The work is consisted with VuA’s work and is yet another elegant jewel box in their portfolio of amazingly refined residences.
