・Cantilevered closets
The site is located on the soft ground near the lower basin of the big river. The client of this house decided to build one-storied house because the site area is wide enough, but it was necessary to reduce the foundation area because of the construction budget. So I arranged closets in the outer periphery, and attached them by the cantilevering structure.
The client asked to create Japanese-style space, so I omitted interior decoration materials and wooden structure (pillar and beam) is exposed to the room. And inner walls are finished in linden plywood only.
・Courtyard
I designed the courtyard style to insert outdoor space between a living rooms in consideration of the client’s lifestyle which uses the outside space positively. This courtyard space has an important function for daylighting and ventilation in this house which has only few openings because closets are arranged in the outer periphery.
・Structure
This house is constructed of a pillar, ridge and eaves beam and a rafter formed climbing beam. A horizontal member of narrow side isn’t a primary structure. Only a brace member and “Roof Formed Structure” which consist of a climbing beam and a structure plywood
withstand the tremors of the earthquake.
A pillar, a horizontal member and a climbing beam is exposed to the room, but a brace and joint metal hardware which wasn't used for a traditional wooden building are hidden.
