nestled into the mountains of nakatsugawa in japan, ‘kawaue residence’ was first built between 1845 – 1848. originally serving as the home of one of the historical families of the village, it recently underwent a full restoration to become a rentable holiday home for short stays. in these two videos shot by kuroyanagi, the architecture of kawaue residence and its beautiful surroundings have been captured throughout the changing seasons.
