With so much of today’s homes striving for flexible and multipurpose spaces, what if you designed a space for a single specific use, or ritual?

Situated in a suburban native backyard, MRTN Architects designed two studios, inspired by Japanese teahouses and architecture. With one studio for work, and the other not for work, the idea of ritual shapes the character of these buildings.

  • I'm a Japanese viewer. It's wonderful how you pay attention to detail and make it authentically Japanese
  • Such a beautiful place. And it’s filmed in the most exquisite way as well! This deserves a lot of attention.

    Perfect little sculptural art pieces. It must be like working (or not) in a work of art. And Sam Cox's garden design looks so uncontrivd but sets them off beautifully.

    Konnichiwa Antonio! Well done! They've used one of the tekniks of japanese architecture, which is Shared Views[3rd technique] In this case, the garden. That blows thru the inside of the house that mostly used wood. I love it!
