Like a delicate acorn clings to a tree branch, this house is practically hanging by a thread on the edge of the hill. This beauty is the “House in Asamayama” designed and built by Kidosaki Architects Studio in Asamayama, Japan. Gorgeous craftsmanship, the house is wrapped with beautiful hard wood. It is a contemporary classic landscaped with stone walls and natural forest. Inside a modest fireplace, simple white walls and basic black doors frame the exquisite grains of wood in the floors. Truly bringing the outdoors in, this floor-plan draws the eyes to the horizon of magnificent mountains.

I find a way to fearlessly provoke your senses and take you by the heart to whatever it is I’m writing about. My sweet spot is creative writing, but for the last 20 years I have been providing freelance content for publications on sustainability and green practices, design, architecture, fashion, and non-profit charity. Recently all wrapped up in producing my first book. I have bounced from NYC to Indianapolis, but my true home is a lovely small town in Central Pennsylvania where there’s a legit drive-your-tractor-to-school-day.
