Terrazze is a minimalist house located in Hokkaido, Japan, designed by AE5 partners. This design project is situated in Annupuri, the highest summit in the Niseko mountain range. The aim was to build a condominium hotel in Niseko Hirafu a world leading ski resort at the foot of this mountain. The site is quite desirably located on the lower south east plains at the base of Annupuri and is blessed with a full panorama of the astounding yet elegant silhouette of Mt. Yotei which is called Ezo-Fuji. It isn’t at all far-fetched to think that the very existence of the Niseko Hirafu Ski Resort is directly connected to the extraordinary beauty attributed to the presence of Mt. Yotei and naturally, this also had a large influence on the architectural form of this project. The building itself is composed of four above ground floors containing 6 residential units with its floor plan being organized around two axes. The first axis is to the north west of the site and aligns itself with the street.
