Seashore Shell House in Japan by Takeshi Hirobe Architects
The Seashore Shell House was completed in 2008 by Takeshi Hirobe Architects. Located in the Chiba prefecture — in the greater Tokyo area, this villa by the sea is a wood structure in which the sound of the waves echoes. I love how it was built so that all of the rooms face the ocean, as if giving it a great, big hug.

Like living in the ribcage of the lifeless husk that was once a great sea creature. Can’t decide if it’s morbid or beautiful. Great floors regardless
