FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Michihiro Matsuo's "Cross" design is a testament to innovative residential architecture, inspired by the expansive views surrounding the site. The design aims to seamlessly integrate the outdoor scenery into the indoor living space, fostering a rich sense of connection with the environment. The intersecting planes create a unique architectural device, promoting communication and multi-purpose usage within the residence.
