House in Kamihachiman
Tokushima-shi, Japan
Project Featured on Sep 09, 2013
Photographer: Kaori Ichikawa
The challenge in this design was to enable a comfortable, open lifestyle despite the fact that the building site is surrounded by other homes lined up uniformly on a street running along their south side. The architects chose not to place windows on the southern side of the home, where they would look out only on neighboring houses, and instead included large windows on the northern side that take advantage of the view of a bamboo forest behind the property. In doing so they achieved even natural lighting and a feeling of spaciousness in the interior. A private walled-in terrace connecting to the living room adds to this sense of light and space. The overall result is a home that is much more comfortable and relaxing than one would guess by looking at the surrounding neighborhood.
Primary usage) Residence
Structure) wooden construction, two stories above ground
Family structure) Couple with a child
Site area) 175.29 m2
Building area) 74.54 m2
Total floor space) 98.92 m2
