Inside / Outside.

Though the quality of these photos isn't great, one can get a sense for the relationship between interior and exterior spaces in traditional Japanese architecture. It's quite amazing to stand outside of a house, look through, and see greenery on the other side. Like most pre-modern architecture throughout the world, these buildings actually considered environmental factors such as sun exposure, cross-ventilation, light quality, etc.
