Beautiful photos. I love the Kawara roof very much. People don't use Kawara in my hometown, Hokkaido, so it's very cool to see it in Honshu. I like the second photo which has the Japanese-style genkan with a modern building

Oh, do Hokkaido houses not use kawara roof tiles? I didn't know that! Interesting. They are so common here in Honshu that I just assumed it was the same all over Japan.

Yeah, we have heavy snow, so we can't install a Kawara roof even though it looks cool. Also, we don't have Amado windows to protect us from typhoon storms!
