Modern Japan Houses - 360-degree garden access plus a rooftop patio!

When you think “house” you think four walls and a roof. When Japanese Tezuka Architects thought “house” they decided to leave the “wall” part out. The outcome is the Wall-less House, located in the region of Setagaya-ku in Tokyo, Japan. This cool modern house is supported with a central core and a pair of thin columns. The lack of walls on the ground floor allows the interior living space to open up to the outdoors, with 360-degree garden access. Rising up three storeys, this spacious 2,582-sq.-ft. home boasts steel shutters that can be opened by day to flood the space with natural light, and closed at night for privacy. A gorgeous rooftop patio offers panoramic views of the surrounding city.
