byoubugaura house
Professor: Zain AbuSeir
Fall of 2025
Over the course of half a semester, I drew inspiration from the Byoubugaura House by Takeshi Hosaka Architects in Yokohama, Japan. The project contained three parts. First, replicating the house as is, then adding a room based on the logic of the house, and finally abstracting the essence of the house into a solid-void model.
