TAKAASHIROU House and Pastry Shop / Meguro Architecture Laboratory

Located in a nature-rich residential area of Tokyo, TAKAASHIROU is a three storey-building consisting of a pastry shop on the 1st floor and residents from the 2nd – 3rd floors. This building is constructed along a slope of a cliff line and supported by tall wooden pillars with distinctive architectural elements. This is why this building was named TAKAASHIROU, which means tall pillars.
