house on the edge

@houseontheedge

There is this idea of a house that is to be built on the edge of a mountain in the German Alps or Voralpenland in a perfect village [*]. Here, you find our ideas how that might look from the outside as well as the "inner design values". We use this blog as inspiration storage and hope that someday we will just share it with the architect in charge...;) [*] more on that later

It’s not surprising that only a few would associate their notion of Japan with a word like ‘enka’. ‘Chado’ or ‘zazen’ are perhaps a less foreign one to use, but not ‘enka’. Even the young Japanese nowadays will be more familiar with John Denver than Hibari Misoura. This reality, however, ironically confirms what enka actually lives for: a romanticised reminiscence of the past. Enka, that still gains – albeit decreasingly, popularity among the elderly; is considered to be an essential Japanese manifesto that indulges in melancholy. Enka is mostly written around the theme of a lost love, loneliness, or hardship of life.
