Textual content description supplied by the architects. This can be a residence the place a household of three and their two beloved canine will dwell. The venture web site is situated on the mild slopes within the north of Osaka Prefecture. Homes and residence buildings stand in rows to the north in a way paying homage to the terraced fields that used to occupy the realm, whereas fields unfold out to the south, albeit changed by parking tons in some areas, giving the location a scenic view that extends to the town of Osaka.
The location abuts a significant highway on the northern aspect and a non-public highway on the southern aspect, inserting it adjoining to contrasting roads and exterior environments. This was initially the situation of the home the place the shopper lived till reaching maturity. It was one of many few previous homes that remained regardless of being almost buried within the surrounding surroundings that has modified a lot over the previous 40 years. After reaching maturity, the shopper lived for a very long time in a residential space within the suburbs, however he determined to return to this acquainted place and rebuild as an open closing residence, the place buddies might collect and youngsters and grandchildren might really feel at peace.
When planning the constructing, we reconstructed the constructing’s relationship with the 2 contrasting roads and aimed to construct in a means that will inherit the surroundings of this land, which is steadily fading as a result of ongoing improvement of residential areas.

When seen from the primary highway, this home creates a panorama as a result of multifaceted roof, and the landscape-like roof comes right down to a top folks can attain out and contact close to the doorway to the residence going through the non-public highway, mixing into the shut sense of scale across the house. We constructed the house in order that it will not be restricted to a relationship with solely one among these contrasting roads whereas adjusting the space between every highway and the roof. If the constructing additionally matured over time alongside modifications within the vegetation, such because the gardens and bushes on the location and the herbs within the rooftop terrace on the indifferent room, and have become connected to the surroundings of this place, and if folks can suppose again to the surroundings that was on this place, then certainly that will be splendidly enriching.
