This ultra-modern, minimalist house design in Komae, Japan, was completed in 2007 by architects Makoto Yamaguchi Design. This cool house proves that simplicity is beauty, with its contemporary, clean lines and a crisp, white palette both inside and out. From its exterior, the clean, cube shape boasting a slight slope, which lends the illusion of fluidity. The facade is interrupted by few but focal floor-to-ceiling windows, but beyond that, the exterior leaves everything to the imagination. Inside, this modern design continues with the design’s milky motif, with understated finishes and tall walls, faced with mirrors, forming narrow hallways that sweep you from one living space to the next.
