Overview

This board frames a apartment building in Japanese Zen terms. Japanese Zen strips the facade back to essentials: calm horizontal composition, disciplined openings, and materials left to age honestly. Silence is the ornament. Mineral plaster gives the facade one continuous, breathing skin. Read best on volumes with clean geometry, it softens daylight instead of reflecting it and hides minor imperfections behind a matte, tactile finish.
