Director Mamoru Hosoda talks about designing the spaces used in his latest film MIRAI by working with an architect.

When four-year-old Kun meets his new baby sister, his world is turned upside down. Named Mirai (meaning “future”), the baby quickly wins the hearts of Kun’s entire family. As his mother returns to work, and his father struggles to run the household, Kun becomes increasingly jealous of baby Mirai... until one day he storms off into the garden, where he encounters strange guests from the past and future – including his sister Mirai, as a teenager. Together, Kun and teenage Mirai go on a journey through time and space, uncovering their family’s incredible story. Directed by Mamoru Hosoda, and featuring the voices of John Cho, Rebecca Hall, and Daniel Dae Kim.

An official selection at Cannes Directors’ Fortnight, and the epic capstone of director Mamoru Hosoda’s career, Mirai is a sumptuous, magical, and emotionally soaring adventure about the ties that bring families together and make us who we are.

Dude after watching this movie I wanted this house so bad

[colinmcbottle]

First time I was genuinely impressed with architecture work in animated media. Because that's legit an introverted house a very good architect would design. It has all the qualities that make modern japanese housing architecture so delicate and serene.

Also the movie itself is very good, very Ghibli-esque. Totally recommended.

the house philosophy of kun-kun that keeps growing is amazing

[rafaelcamargourango]

I want to build this house when I could afford it.
