HEIWA

In Japanese culture, the concept of Heiwa goes beyond just a superficial idea of peace. It is a way of life that emphasizes a deep respect for nature and the interconnectedness of all things. The goal is to find a balance and harmony that allows individuals to live in a state of fulfillment, while also contributing to the well-being of the world around them.

The principles of Heiwa have influenced architecture. Traditional Japanese homes are designed to create a sense of harmony between indoor and outdoor spaces, with a focus on natural materials and simplicity. The purpose is to create a living space that is not just aesthetically pleasing, but also promotes a sense of calm and tranquility.

In the creation of this house, we embraced the principles of Heiwa, collaborating with Book of Wa to infuse Japanese cultural nuances into the design in order to create architectural configurations that correctly represent the soul of the project.
