This is a great building on the edge of Kew Gardens. I really love how all of the different materials are interacting. This is my favorite style of architecture and this building is really well detailed.

I like all of the wooden louvres layered over the wooden siding. I also like how they aren't trying to hide the joints of the wood siding. If you can't hide them really well, then let them become part of the design.

I like how the door blends in with the rest of the building. Sometimes it's nice to have some things stand out, such as a door or window, but this whole building want to blend in as much as possible.

I like how the wood siding bends with the curve on the edge. On the right, the wood is horizontal, but when it runs into this other half, the wood is all vertical. I like how orienting the siding differently lets you know that those spaces are used differently.
