About Atelier BORONSKI
In order to come up with the very specific design ideas, we create most designs with the assistance of state-of-the-art AI interior design software. Also, assume links that take you off the site are affiliate links such as links to Amazon. this means we may earn a commission if you buy something.
Atelier BORONSKI is a bilingual design office based in Kyoto and directed by a New Zealand-born architect educated in both New Zealand and Japan. They are developing a strong and fluid design vocabulary across a diverse range of building types, generating elegant, durable, and dramatic buildings. Significant research and analysis are brought to bear on every project, often in collaboration. Evocative materials, intelligent engineering, and environmentally sensitive strategies are all employed to bring our designs to life.
On a hill overlooking Kyoto this house had to negotiate some strict city planning regulations. But on the inside we could think freely. It is a static volume with various private spaces inserted. The public spaces form a single connected volume, with the main stairways sweeping through it all.
In this way we could achieve an expansive and dramatic triple height living volume. The main living, dining, kitchen area is on the 1st floor but there is a 2nd living room on the 3rd floor, with the main bedroom bridging the void. The bathroom is left hanging on the second floor above the kitchen dining area. There is a lot of insulation behind the burnt Cedar cladding and underfloor heating with double glazed windows. This is a warm sunny home with a lot of attitude
