A striking residential tower in Shinjuku, defined by a distinctive façade that immediately reflects Florian Busch’s design language. The rhythm, depth, and precision of the exterior give the building a strong identity within the dense urban context. Inside, the layout feels efficient and clear, creating a contemporary living environment shaped with careful architectural intent.

A high-end apartment building crafted in collaboration with Westbank Corp., featuring an impressive facade that commands attention. The design emphasizes large, open spaces and meticulous attention to detail, elevating it as a premier development at the pinnacle of Tokyo’s real estate market. Exceptional luxury and innovation combined.

A trip to Switzerland made it possible to visit this newly opened student housing project in Geneva. The circulation is beautifully handled, creating natural meeting points and generous gathering spaces that support everyday student life. Light, materials, and movement work together with clarity, resulting in a calm and welcoming environment that feels both functional and thoughtfully composed.

A highly creative project in Maebashi and a real pleasure to photograph. Shooting on the same day as the Shinkenchiku photographer added a nice sense of occasion. The relation between the translucent plastic façade and the deep blue sky was almost magical. Sharing the day with a close friend as assistant made it even better, and supporting a young architecture office felt meaningful.

A vibrant landmark on the Marseille waterfront, instantly recognizable for its layered colors and sharp geometry. Spending time around the tower felt meaningful, especially in a place where my grandfather once worked after arriving in France. The façade shifts beautifully with the light, creating new patterns from every angle — a strong, optimistic addition to the city’s skyline.

This family house in Tokyo marked my first collaboration with Hirata-san, and the two-day commission became a truly engaging experience. With the architects present on site, we explored creative ways to reveal the project’s complex exterior and its layered interior spaces. The structure offers shifting perspectives at every level, allowing the shoot to capture the full depth, rhythm, and tree-like character of the house.
