K2 House is a minimalist home located in Tokyo, Japan, designed by Taketo Shimohigoshi / AAE. The home is characterized by galvanized metal paneling that wraps the asymmetrical facade. A small gap is placed in between two volumes to create a private interior courtyard, allowing abundant natural light to enter the main living spaces. The layout and proportions of the volumes creates an abstract structure that uniquely contrasts against the more traditional residences within its proximity.
