Inter-University Seminar House, Hachioji Tokyo Japan
Takamasa Yoshizaka designed this Modernistic house in 1964. The Brutalist concrete walls angle up into the sky and are capped with a trimmed roof. Yoshizaka worked directly under Le Corbusier in Paris and then worked on his own in Japan starting in 1952. He was instrumental in transforming Corbusier's modern concepts of architecture into the Japanese context. He used modular forms, patterns of windows that punctured through the walls. The emphasis on pedestrian area moves to an emphasis on views at the rear, with a jigsaw pattern of windows facing the beautiful natural scenery.
