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. Metal cladding gives the facade crisp edges and a controlled reflectivity no mineral surface can match. In panels or standing seams, it reads precise and engineered, and it handles detailing corners that would look heavy in stone.
