We have features Japanese designs on this blog before, but we never cease to be amazed by the way the simplicity of the style can create a calming space. In both of these houses, from the architects at mA-Style, are prime examples of this. Utilizing different levels, angles, and a contrast of open spaces and cozy nooks, they have created two unique homes that reflect Japanese sensibility and minimalist comfort.

The architects worked to create a space that celebrates both light and shadow. The way that the slats in the roof allow and block sunlight and different angles turns the light itself into an artistic show inside the home.

Sturdy ladders lead up to comfortable sleep, reading, or meditating nooks while the spaces below can be used as storage.
