Window house by MUJI

Did you know that MUJI does houses? This is one of my favorite, which concept is windows as the main theme of the house. I always love gigantic windows that cut through a wall in an unexpected way, and connect the inside and outside of the house. Some windows can really make people walking on the street want to enter the house, and others can really bring the beautiful open air outside, to the inside.

Traditional houses in Kyoto don't have paintings on the wall but beautiful windows that can "borrow" and frame outside views. I also felt the houses outside of London have a very inviting window that openly show their beautiful living room. MUJI says they actually had Cotswolds where Peter Rabbit was born, in mind, when they designed the house. Interessante.
