The owner obtained one-story house in 1974, and they added the upper floor of steel structure after 2 years. And moreover, they extended kitchen space in 2000. The former ground floor was divided in some small rooms and there was not space large enough for them to enjoy their time with their guests. In 2008 the owner decided to reform the ground floor to be more comfortable.
The ground floor is demolished except its structure such as columns, beams and foundations. The walls, eaves, floors, ceilings are all renovated. A larger room was planned with a new Japanese “tatami” room added into the existing garden.
Although this site is surrounded by Mt.Bizan, symbol of Tokushima city, the former house wasn’t in good condition for looking at the mountain from the ground floor. In this project the windows and eaves are carefully placed so that they could enjoy the view of Mt.Bizan beyond neighbor houses and their gardens.
