Machine Head House in Japan

Photobucket

By Japanese Architect Norisada Maeda. Completed this past april, the building lives up to it mechanically-inspired name by using a concrete and steel structure clad with metal on the interior and exterior. inside, bolts protrude from metal panels, making the material very obvious. despite the heavy materials, the building remains light and airy.
