New Blogger and Studio in Yokohama

Hi all! This is Nevets. The creator of this blog (Samuel.H) has kindly asked me to share my "visual" interest on to this blog. The area of interest that I will be posting are mainly architectural related but I am aslo interested in other topics such as product design , fine arts, fashion, photography and wine science. So here you go.

I fell in love with the simplicity of this design when i first laid my eyes on it. It is "the" place any architects, designers and artists would want to live/work in and share their ideaS.It is designed by the architecture firm Ondesign (see the link below). They are often involved with small scaled projects in Japan and are very good in manipulating and saving spaces. Too bad Australia is BIG.
