This apartment renovation in Sendai, Japan, transformed a dated space into a modern sanctuary by playing with light and shadow.
The architects removed walls, allowing light from the south to flood the space, but the existing structure cast dramatic shadows.
The resulting 'Shadows Room' is a space of contrast, with the darkness highlighting the bright living room and creating a unique atmosphere.
The project draws inspiration from traditional Japanese aesthetics, where darkness is not just an absence of light, but a space for reflection and imagination.
