Atelier Bisque by UID

Atelier Bisque, Osaka, Japan
designed by UID architect

This residence-studio is in Minoh, Osaka belongs to an artist who makes bisque dools.
The building resembles a floating white sandwich wiht a verdant courtyard at its centre. Keisuke Maeda, the architect who designed this, said that the house is a place for life to create new communications with the help of the natural environments.





create new communications with the help of the natural environments....

That is the key point I like among the characteristics of this house. White floating wall is projected from the body of the building embracing the trees in yard. The floating wall represents the profound statement that says the residence and the landscape are not to be separated but should be cooperated in order to create the perfect house where people can live with joy.

Furthermore, there is a beauty of balancing between the simple straight form of the building and lively organic form of the nature, tree, as seen from the photo on side.
Due to the floating wall, the view at eyelevel is obstructed; howerver, it teaches people to see the view at different angles. For example, the big skylight created by the horizontal shift of the wall provides the panoramic view of the sky as well as lets the light come into the interior space. The minimumness of the design and the material accentuated the house's incorporation with the sence of nature, which makes this dwelling so unique and special.
