The triangular building was built in the heart of the Shiga Prefecture, Japan. The building itself is so outstanding due to the slimmest architecture in the block. The master mind behind this awesome apartment design is Japanese architects Eastern Design Office.
The four-storey block with a blue facade, The Corner-the named-occupies a triangular slice of land. Squares of stone, concrete, glass and glass blocks create a patchwork of materials on the building’s exterior. Seven apartments are housed within the block, each with one bedroom and an open-plan living room. Pointed terraces are provided in the building’s most acutely angled corner.
