Textual content description supplied by way of the architects. The 3-storey wood dwelling with a commonplace gentle backyard is for two-family, mom and her daughter’s, in Setagaya Tokyo. Because of the encompassing by way of neighbor properties, an elongated backyard is situated in opposition to the street on the north for inviting herbal gentle, wind, and visible connection to town. Every room is situated round this backyard with home windows in order that each households can really feel their presence and unite the kin.


Lately, the cost of land within the town has skyrocketed, and homes for nuclear households are being subdivided into smaller rather a lot and industrially produced in a an identical approach. Then again, households have other life and paintings types, and we imagine that extra numerous houses are wanted. We would have liked to create a brand new way of life the place the 2 households may just come in combination once more, applying the acquainted land the place the mummy now lives.

Standard two-family properties have a tendency to have a wall between them, however we sought a spatial configuration that will permit the 2 households to have a just right sense of distance and dating. These days’s wood properties are coated with plasterboard and shortage the heat of wooden, and town is stuffed with ready-made external fabrics which might be too homogeneous. This undertaking aimed to create a brand new form of dwelling that’s not restricted to a unmarried residing unit, however quite opens up the backyard to town, bringing in gentle, wind, and greenery. The primary flooring is for the mummy, and the second one and 3rd flooring are for the daughter’s kin, every keeping up their independence, sharing the wind and lightweight, and staring at over every different during the timber. We deliberate that the doorway on the second one flooring would at all times be reached by way of a staircase across the gentle backyard.


Curved glass and wood-aluminum composite sashes are used within the openings going through the deep gentle backyard to create a cushy growth of the internal area. With a view to create an area the place one can really feel the heat of wooden in a three-story wood construction, we uncovered the wood construction, completed the ceiling in wooden and wooden fixtures. We additionally designed a wood staircase. The attitude of the solar’s rays corresponds to the slanted tiles at the external partitions, informing us of the converting seasons. The sandy coating that makes up the curved floor provides the illusion of a herbal rock floor.

On account of the website stipulations, with neighboring properties shut by way of at the south aspect, we created a deep backyard at the north aspect and divided the amount of the development to ask daylight, leading to a shiny dwelling full of gentle. The distance across the gentle backyard is a unmarried room, so the sunshine backyard will also be observed from any place. At the first flooring, the place the artwork categories are held, there’s a gallery going through the sunshine backyard, and on the second one flooring, the lounge across the gentle backyard is attached to the 3rd flooring via a wood staircase within the atrium, designed to permit wind and lightweight to go via.
