Three-stories. 54-square meter plot. One awesome bathroom. The VISTA House is a little home with BIG promise.

Located in Tokyo's Nishidai Itabashi neighborhood, the little wonder is the product of Apollo Architects & Associates. The firm has brilliantly fit a monochromatic white structure in asymmetric, angular form on a small area of land. Making the most of the magnificent view on the north side, the home has large, open panoramic windows. On the street side, the stark white cube gives the street-front an almost fortress-like look.

Inside a spiral stairway connects all floors, and the white facade is contrasted with dark walnut floors and furnishings.
