Intermediate Zone: Gray Spaces Between Inside and Outside

Design a building in the manner of Kisho Kurokawa organised around engawa — the Japanese in-between zone that is neither inside nor outside and belongs to both. Compose a deep covered veranda running the whole length of a building beneath a wide oversailing roof, timber decking continuing from interior floor to exterior without a threshold, sliding screens fully retracted so the room and the garden read as one space, a gravel strip catching rain from the eaves, soft rainy-day light, eye-level view along the veranda, 28mm lens, architectural photography, ultra photorealistic, 8K
