		<description>@Obscurity: I live in Japan, there are millions of sites like this around the country. Welcome anytime!

As for protections against the elements, the wood on this house will not last ten years before, snow, salt blown in from the ocean, sand and wind destroys it. It will look pretty awful within 2 years. 

The box above the piano isn&#039;t for air conditioning units. I have never seen one that would fit in there. And you would have to drill through the side compartment to punch a hole in the wall for the air/water duct. Not very practical.

The energy bill will be enormous. 

Lovely color though.</description>

		<description>How happy the whole family must be feeling having their own new house  built on a site raised for a good view!

I envy the location of this house. Just wondering what measures the archietect has incorporated in this flat-roofed, wooden-sided house against the elements.  

(The box above the piano is for an air conditioner unit; the porch with a shoe cupboard at the entrance is a must space for us to take off shoes before stepping in the house.)</description>

		<description>What&#039;s that box above the piano?

Hopefully all this wood is not unvarnished, although it looks that way. I do like the two toned wood floor.

The geometry feels very clumsy to me. Not enough excitement or rigour.

That little porch around the double doors is pointless other than to break up the boring facade. Can&#039;t even stand in it.</description>
