"Architect Keita Nagata has created an apartment complex that fuses the natural
environment of the Japanese region of Takamatsu to the needs of these
purpose-built units.

To replicate the flow of the surrounding terrain each of the five units feature
specially designed sloping green roofs.

Every home has it’s own garden space as the apartments are all slightly offset.
Terraces form outdoor spaces within steps to main living areas.

Despite the project’s relatively small scale, it took two and a half years to
complete."
