Although just a short two-hour drive east of Tokyo’s bustling downtown core, this modern, peaceful abode in Japan’s Boso Peninsula offers a relaxing retreat facing the Pacific Ocean with the majestic mountains as its backdrop. Designed by Kiyonobu Nakagame Architects, this contemporary design embraces minimalism to the fullest, with a simple layout that yields to the surrounding awe-inspiring views. Storefront-style windows cover most of the house exterior, framed by a continuous wall that wraps around corners and folds upwards to create a private upper-level loft space.
