Yes it is a spa Lu. Peter Zumthor is an architect I would personally love to commission to design a house for me. I would love a holiday house in a very remote place like Lake Wanaka in the South Island of New Zealand. Shania Twain has a house there.  |

I also want a remote house but I'd want mine to be located 2-3 hours outside Japan with a garden and surrounding nature spectacular as the house itself. I want to spend me evenings cutting Bonsai trees and eatin sushi with aluminum sticks  . This house below shows the type of architecture I have in mind.        |

At first it does appear to be quite a cold building, I agree with you Artist, but there is a richness in the solidity of the materials -- this building will stand for centuries. | |

Great house Lu, do you know who the architect was? Larry Ellison is a big fan of Japanese architecture and design. Does anyone have some pictures of his amazing house? |

The Architect is Chinese Rocco Yim. I haven't seen Ellisons house but I'll try to digg up some good images of it. |
