House in Koto / Uno Architects

A house that turns red in response to the amplified setting sun – The site is located at a waterfront area in the eastern part of Lake Biwa. In the village, there are many houses with flowing wells, and the sound of water can be heard constantly. The water flows into the lake, intersecting with the waterway and growing larger as it flows. The site is located at the southern end of the village, facing vast countryside, with a view of the mountains to the east and the mountains beyond the lake to the west. The water flows as if the stream of time flows, enriching people's lives, helping the field crop, and creating the rhythm of the land with the sun.
