1. Photography. A color photo of a city view of Kyoto, taken from above. The typical three- to four-storey residential buildings are lined up next to each other. But in the middle of the picture, a face looks out at us. It is not a painting, but a special house built with a human appearance. A friendly, beige-colored house with big round eyes, a long nose and a mouth full of teeth. It looks a little shy. Info: The famous "The Face House" is a building designed by architect Kazumasa Yamashita in Kyoto in 1975. Each part of the house is designed to mimic the function of real human orifices. Windows function as eyes that look out onto the street, nostrils as vents, a mouth with glass windows as an entrance and, although not visible from the street, the balconies on either side of the building function as ears that allow air and ambient sounds into the building.
