Tomohiro Hata Designs House in Kitano, Kobe
Tomohiro Hata Architect and Associates has completed a residential project in the Kitano area of Kobe, Japan. The 116-square-meter house, finished in 2025, responds to the city's hilly terrain shaped by the Rokko mountain range. The design embraces the characteristic urban feature of views from the mountains toward the sea, a tradition passed down through generations. Photographs by Toshiyuki Yano document the project.
