I had posted before but didnt go through.. I wanted to post on this building example in relation to your latest thoughts about framing views, capturing skylines etc.. What intrigues me about this project, and much of what comes from Japanese minimalism, is the way its exterior pulls away from the noise of the disjointed urban context. What is more, we can see this reflected in the openness and stark spatial clearance of the interior spaces, in photo but mostly through plan. While framing the city is important, think of what makes this moment sublime for the user (in the space) and how do the rest of the surroundings allow them to focus on that view and not detract from it.
