Design Philosophy
At Suga Tadashi Architects Office we value the essential requirements of the particular project over any predetermined style or philosophy.
We think about how people want to feel in a space; what makes them comfortable and happy; about colors, sounds, and smells, the different kinds of light, the flow of air, the feelings we have forgotten and the landscapes that are timeless.
All of these elements are not absolutes but rather things that touch us, move us, and awaken our senses. We search for the universal solution buried among these diverse elements.
