Bunzo Ogawa of [FUTURE STUDIO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/recess-2) designed the Wrap House in Hiroshima, Japan. The Wrap House is a single family residence that is anything but ordinary. The [severely slanted roof](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-house-with-an-inverted-roof) and [ample glass facades](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glass-ridge-house) make the design open, inviting, and modern.

The Wrap House was photographed by Toshiyuki Yano. For more from Bunzo Ogawa and FUTURE STUDIO, check out his portfolio at his website. He is based in Tokyo, and his work can be seen around Japan.
