The Jury for this year’s World Architecture Festival have revealed the winning projects from around the globe during the 3 day event in Barcelona, Spain.

The ‘In Between House’ designed by Koji Tsutsui & Associates, winner of the ‘World’s Best Villa’ has particularly caught our eye!

Surrounded by Japanese larch trees in a mountainous region of Japan, this house seamlessly blends into the natural surrounding. The architects designed this house as a cluster of small mountain cottages using local materials.

There is a simple clarity in the interior & exterior detailing, the spacial configuration, integration on the site and craftsmanship of construction.
