The stark honesty of Hiroshima-born and -primarily based 38-year-old architect Keisuke Maeda’s function is breathtaking.


The Pit Residence residence he designed for a client in Okayama, Japan, is a startling steel-structured 138 square-meter (1487 sq.ft.) “cave” that was constructed into the hillside web site, yet it enables the residents 360-degree views of the surrounding location and its buildings.

This is accomplished by mounting the above-the-surface element of the structure on 50 branch-like poles, creating a surround skylight for the amphitheater inside.

The Pit is a single of these residences that one particular would totally want to pay a visit to, not just throughout the day but at evening. There is an observatory-like really feel to the space, but the inside appears entirely comfortable.


The structure’s boxy surface silhouette hides gorgeous, snail-like curving walls, and in spite of being mostly underground, the residence is filled with light and openness.

Pit is certainly not the word we’d use to describe this superb structure, but possibly that name is element of that honesty we so enjoy about Maeda. - Tuija Seipell
