نگاه این برادران شرقی مون در خیلی چیزها، عموما برای ما -که ناسلامتی خودمون رو یه پا شرقی به حساب میاریم- موجبات تعجب رو فراهم میاره. برای ما خیلی عجیبه این ها مثلا چرا یا چه طور اصلا سوسک برشته می خورند!؟ یا مثلا سالاد کرم تفت داده شده یعنی چی!!!؟
مشکل این جاست که این تفاوت های اساسی تنها به خوراک و پوشش و قیافه و رنگ پوست و قد وقامت و ... محدود نمی شه. تقریبا در هر چیزی دقیق می شی می بینی این ها متفاوت‌اند از ما!

مثلا این یک خونه است از دید طراحی ژاپنی! مجموعه سطوحی با ارتفاعات مختلف و فضاهای زاهدانه که خیلی بی محابا در معرض دید قرار گرفتند و کم‌تر عرصه‌ای خصوصی رو به صاحب خونه دادند. انگار می کنی که از کاغذ و خلال دندون ساخته شده!

'house NA' by sou fujimoto architects, tokyo, japan

tokyo-based practice sou fujimoto architects has completed 'house NA', a single family dwelling within a
residential district in tokyo, japan. similar in form to a stacked pile of boxes the internal areas generated by
the exterior appearance are set at different elevations. the small rooms within each platform are connected
by ladder stairs allowing a free movement through the home's loosely defined program.
the rectangular windows of varied proportions and sizes frame views of adjacent structures while the elimination
of solid interior walls encourage unobstructed sight lines to higher and lower spaces. at night, curtains become
temporary partitions for privacy and separation.

and achievements through models, drawings, images, sculpture, photographs and mixed-media installations.
