Ehrismann Residence, Western residence in Motomachi Park, Yokohama, Japan
The Ehrismann Residence features white exterior walls with green trim, broad windows, and gently sloped roofs that demonstrate Western architectural elements in Japan.
Built in 1926 for Swiss merchant Fritz Ehrismann by architect Antonin Raymond, the residence was relocated to Motomachi Park in 1990 after being dismantled in 1982.
The interior spaces include a drawing room with fireplace, dining area, and exhibition rooms displaying documents about Western buildings in the Yamate district.
Visitors can explore this two-story wooden structure free of charge, but must remove shoes at the entrance and wear provided slippers inside the building.
The residence combines European and Japanese design elements, featuring separate bathroom facilities due to the Japanese heritage of Ehrismann's wife.
