Asymmetrical Shaped House

Ysy House was designed by Nagoya-based studio Auau and is located in Seto, Japan, in a beautiful but populated forest, on top of a small hill. With a matte white finish, the home is very well differentiated within its neighborhood and is quite an attention-grabber. The home is structured on two levels and the asymmetrical walls make the interiors unique.
