A slender staircase proceeds to the bedroom, another simple room graced with a huge mirror that cuts the space in half. Next to the mirror is a spiral staircase leading to the living area on the top floor. The huge room, entered through a small cylinder in the middle, offers a beautiful view of the surrounding country. A subtle and stripped-down kitchen, dining room and living area float above a surrounding sunken corridor. Lots of open space encourages the residents to contemplate the endless countryside beyond, or the low flying airplanes landing at a neighboring airport.

That’s an incredible space. It’s as much work of art as a place to live, really. I just wish as unique places lived in more density, closer together, so we could visit them one after another. A friend of mine was set up with someone by Richard Easton, and she actually took him on that kind of tour. They visited inventively-designed open houses, one after another, in Tokyo. Which is where they really pack ‘em together I suppose.
