A distinctive housing complex built in 1964 – is a small space called the “observation room.” We decided to use it as a place for experimentation and call it the Kinfolk Case Study Room.
The subject of the third exhibition at the Case Study Room is Balkrishna Vithaldas “B.V.” Doshi, the first Indian architect to win the Pritzker Prize, architecture’s Nobel, in 2018.

In 1964, the year Tokyo first hosted the Olympics, a startlingly unique housing complex was built in the Jingumae district of Harajuku: Villa Bianca (White House). It was the realization of design ideas for housing which Kanzo Ishida, founder of Kowa Shoji Co., Ltd., a real estate developer, had gathered on a trip to Europe and the United States and later shared with architect Eiji Hotta. Villa Bianca houses a total of 45 units. The exterior design, consisting of a number of stacked, cube-like containers, impressed many at the time, and was featured as a paragon of the modern housing complex in various international publications, most notably LIFE.
