Himeji-jo [姫路城] - Japan
https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/661
Himeji-jo is the finest surviving example of early 17th-century Japanese castle architecture, comprising 83 buildings with highly developed systems of defence and ingenious protection devices dating from the beginning of the Shogun period. It is a masterpiece of construction in wood, combining function with aesthetic appeal, both in its elegant appearance unified by the white plastered earthen walls and in the subtlety of the relationships between the building masses and the multiple roof layers

As one 20th-century usage writer commented, “Qua is sometimes thought affected or pretentious, but it does convey meaning economically.”
Qua’s meaning is quite specific—it can substitute for the phrase “in the capacity or character of” or the preposition as in the right context,
as in “they wanted to enjoy the wine qua [kwɑː] wine, not as a status symbol.”
I want to enjoy doing the "designerly" things qua the "designerly" things, not participating in office politics.
qua
preposition [kwɑː]
What It Means
Qua is a preposition used in formal speech or writing that means “in the capacity or character of (someone or something).” It is used synonymously with as to indicate that someone or something is being referred to or thought about in a particular way.
