Niseko Highland cottages
Since being introduced as having the best snow quality in the world, Niseko has become the go-to ski spot for travelers from overseas. This project comprised of four cottages with an administration building was to provide a retreat for foreign visitors.
Each cottage has a living room with a view of Mt Yotei and a bedroom on the second floor with a view of the Annupuri slopes. Each has a living room, a bathroom, and a bedroom on the first floor, one more bedroom on the second floor, and a multipurpose room facing a double-height space, which can accommodate up to six people. The entrance has a wide alcove to facilitate easy entry into the cottage even during the snowy season.
All windows are triple-glazed with resin sashes imported from Germany. Each cottage has a different color theme, and each room, its own personality.
