Yumenomori, meaning “Forest of Dreams,” is YODEZEEN’s debut project in Japan — a 500 sqm single-family home in Sapporo completed in 2025. Designed by Artem Zverev and Artur Sharf, with project management led by Anna Tarabanova and Olga Kravchenko, the house embodies a seamless fusion of Japanese tradition and contemporary European architecture.

Set in a seismically active zone, Yumenomori showcases adaptive engineering and a deep respect for nature. Its facade features vertical wooden slats, terraces, and garden elements inspired by Japanese landscaping, creating harmony between the built and natural environments. A polished forest rock, placed in a symbolic garden and visible through expansive glass walls, anchors the home spiritually and visually.

Inside, minimalist design prevails. Travertine, stone, and wood form a serene palette, while a striking red stone adds energy through custom furnishings. The interiors feature Poliform kitchen design, Henge lighting, and B&B Italia furniture, with Italian wood finishes hand-selected for warmth and balance.

A curated collection of art by Andrii Voznicki and Naraz Bilyk adds personal depth, reflecting the client’s trust and shared vision. Yumenomori stands as a timeless sanctuary—where architecture, nature, and culture converge.
