Yugen, an critical thought of common Japanese aesthetics, is an expression of depth, of what are unable to be translated, of the incomprehensible and summary that passes from philosophy to artwork.

By the distinction of shadow with the intervals of mild manufactured by the windows and the illuminated surface area of the kitchen area, by the concealed landscape that ultimately reveals by itself, Casa Yugen helps make a non-verbal invitation to the space in which one can glimpse the elegance of the secret of the universe and our human issue. At the entrance, the curved wall of the entrance corridor, in condition and tone, generates an infinite “plane” on the concave side, which hides the landscape prior to revealing it.

In strategy or when seen from inside of the environment, it makes a central axis that unfolds the social location without having corners, in an organic way. The h2o mirror in front of the extended windows reflects the macro bonsai that appear to float and the working day sky. The texture and purely natural gentle vary markedly, generating a new landscape with textures of sunlight and drinking water in the course of the times. Areas interact in all corners of the ‘L’ program. The unconventional way in which André Gippi’s Ramona armchair was positioned, communicates with the dwelling room, whilst the residing home opens on to the anteroom and the kitchen/dining room.

The dim partitions that embrace the atmosphere frame the lighted home windows, the painting by Rubens Oestroem, the kitchen, the household furniture, the decoration, the ground and the ceiling, “the sky and the earth”. The chiaroscuro is a source that performs with the strategy of ‘Yugen’, in which features are highlighted, hidden and mimicked on the surfaces, in a way that performs with the protagonism of the items in the dwelling area the couch and coffee desk merge with the rug that merges into the flooring. The darkish bookcase, in the way it is composed, mimics the horizon of the opposite wall, with overturned books, “hidden knowledge”, and the drinking water that is also existing in the bar and in the do the job ‘Ponta do Coral I’ by Alessandro Gruetzmacher.

The ‘false rubber tree’ plant, proportionately significant for an inside house, functions as a bodily and visible landmark between the living home and the kitchen area. The choice of big-format vegetation also performs with scales. In a concept generally adopted by the architect in which the natural and the designed ecosystem, the vegetation with the check out from the window, the organic mild and that of the luminaires really should mutually enrich every other. The kitchen, with a purist off white and white background, with translucent shelf lighting, evokes gentle from windows it does not have. This is punctuated with the Nile Quartz island, organic and natural and darkish as a monolith that has been appropriated by the home and normally takes on a function. In it are the deca vat and drying rack that appear to have been sculpted in the volume.
