Corner-less Home in Japan by Jun Yashiki & Associates
This is one serious piece of architecture in Kanagawa, Japan by Jun Yashiki & Associates. They went with the all white approach to minimalistic-modernistic with subtle touches of light wood on the stairs and handrails.
It’s a very interesting approach to vertical planning, where all the areas fall on top of the one underneath but at the same time, they all flow together so well.
Just imagine getting the curved sliding doors done!

Not what I expected–or hoped for. I was searching for a house without corners–any corners at all. All intersecting planes should be radiused rather than cornered–whether coved at ceilings or floors, or curved into adjacent walls. Turrets, cupolas, towers and domes are all in-bounds as well. As for materials, steel-reinforced polystyrene foam concrete forms, vinyl-cased windows (again, without corners), curved-glass sliding windows and doors (as in the current work), and roofing materials incorporating photovoltaic cells are preferred. Flooring can include plastic laminates, engineered stone or wood, or ceramic treatments. Keep trying.
That house has too many corners. Mike said it all. I want a house with no corners of any description. Every plane must be rounded.
