The house takes advantage of the light and shade contrast produced by the reinforced concrete walls and slabs with openings,and the hight difference created inside of the building volume.Its exterior presents a rough skinned concrete standing up as an artificial mass,which is intentional differed and contrasted with the neutral,neat and clean interior atomospher.I introduced the coarsely skinned,textured image to the keenly white image that washes out the presence of any objects within.I consider myself that such layered spatial experiences trigger and enable to be aware of the transitional nature,reducing the distance between the nature and the conscious mind of people. 2008 Dedalo Minosse international prize 2007/2008 Special Prize / Italy Photographer HIROSHI UEDA
