Japanese architect Shunichiro Ninomiy of NRM-Architects Office has used an atrium and small pool of water to admit light indirectly to the ground floor of this east-facing home in Osaka, Japan.

Called House With Tiny Pool, the two-storey wooden structure is enclosed with a high-walled courtyard preventing direct glare into the ground floor.

Sunlight enters through large windows on the first floor, where a white wall bounces it down through the atrium to the lower storey.

Rooms on the second floor are set back from this facade to prevent direct sunlight.
