japanese practice norisida maeda atelier has shared with us their residence and office titled 'rose' in a suburb of tokyo. the reinforced concrete
cube implements a positive and negative space spatial concept, named the 'recto' and 'verso'. the recto refers to the three large voids taken out of
the solid volume defined by the visible outer envelope, and contain the social functions such as the lounge parking and entry sequence all closely
connected with the exterior through a full-height glazed skin.
the verso in turn is defined by the spaces that would be considered the positive space
within the 'interior' walls, and contain the introverted program: the bedroom, study, and garden. the areas where both conceptual forces collide exhibit
an interesting twist, with both characteristics visible it is somewhat unclear if the space is open or closed and creates a dynamic simultaneous expression
of solid and void. glass floor planes allow the user to understand the structural logic of the entire mass by slicing views through several levels and exposing
the curving walls of the removed blocks. a rather simple and raw material palette adds to a modest interior brought to life with the reflection of light off
the smooth carefully treated surfaces.
