Description:

By growing and conforming the current area condition and nature inside of, I have endeavored to make a space which gives abiding as like a piece of the nature. The shape has been settled objectively and naturally in the framing procedure of managing the site condition and asked for capacity. Not just the aftereffect of the structure paying so as to be natural, regard for the natural matter of the arranging process, the procedure itself maybe created the natural space.

There was a 3.7m tallness contrast and were a great deal of tall trees left at the highest point of the slope by the limit of the site. Since the earth holding divider has been required for using these trees to make the perspective from the upper floor, not just the divider has been exploited getting to be as a piece of the structural engineering, it even has been made to develop to shape the outside shell.

The earth holding mass of the lower floor has been brought up in the type of a winding shape and wrapped around the building, including the outside space as an outer shell of the upper floor. The whole outside mass of this house was framed by this outer shell. The upper floor encompassed by this divider and tall trees was sliced by glassed windows to independent from the outside, making a climate of abiding straightforwardly in a rough mountain. The useful prerequisite as a house was fulfilled by furniture.

The outside divider, inclining toward outside makes an impact of decreasing the spacial weight, drives characteristic daylight furthermore reflects it into inside space. I had the capacity meet the customer’s desire “stopping the perspective from neighbor, however acquiring the sentiment open space”

I regarded the divider as a man made nature, satisfied the capacity by furniture and obstructed the air by glass for human to dwell in. It is the root of Japanese construction modeling for furniture and windows to guarantee the execution as a house, however I expected to acquire a feeling of European quality which gives living by furniture in remain and stones structures.

Moreover, the house holds a complexed spatial structure, however it makes a sensible and agreeable warm environment by outer divider protection and underfloor warming/cooling framework.
