Text description provided by the architects. Yoka Sara’s artistic flair is immediately apparent in the Kayu Aga House designed for Italian businessman Alberto Agazzi.  The reasoning behind the plan form of the house is initially elusive.  The compound essentially consists of a carport and three orthogonal sleeping pavilions located in the four corners of the site.  Occupying the center is a two-story pavilion containing the principal living/dining facilities, with an elevated studio at first floor and a verdant roof garden.  The central pavilion has a delightful oval staircase with bamboo balustrade rising from an elliptical pond.  Each of the sleeping pavilions has a private garden court with a terrace and an outdoor bathroom, and the routes to the center are differently choreographed.
