Minato-ku, Tokyo, Japan

We believe that architecture – be it in cities or rural places – is part of the natural environment. Buildings are a physical and emotional expression of our surroundings. Just as nature is ever mutable, we believe that architecture should not be static. It must always dialogue with the natural setting and provide suitable feelings and experiences.

More and more, this has become our ethos. We seek to get closer to nature in our work; to integrate the natural environment into our manmade universes and reduce our architecture’s impact on nature. This comes from not merely imitating natural materials and landforms, but also connecting to past memories gleaned through personal encounters with nature. We hope it will ignite the senses that lead to a curiosity and discovery – akin to a traveller pushed deeper along paths of exploration. It is a paramount way of thinking that we believe is necessary to make efficacious, innovative and inspiring architecture.
