Located on mountainside of Izu-san, the cherry trees and Japanese oaks cover a villa for the weekends. The whole project is an abstraction of nature. The two rectangular at right angles (lower level contains private rooms and bathroom meanwhile the upper one serves as a salon and kitchen) lies next to the mountain ridge. The Architects have chosen white marble for the interior because it glows softly like Greece sculptures to blend with the sky's blue light from the south and the tree's green light from the west. The facade is also finished in the same material thus accentuate the spatial abstraction further. Mount Fuji Architects Studio chosen abstraction idea is not to conflict with nature here but revitalise it.
