The "House in Shinjo" has no windows outside. That is due to the site's unique condition, which is along the national highway bypass. The house has an inner courtyard like a hole in a square block as a device to let in light and wind while closing to the outside. The building is a wooden structure. In spite of the structural constraints, the designers focused on creating the open space that the client wanted. The interior floor plan was designed to allow the two people to live alone in a spacious and relaxed atmosphere, with a limited building area.

As a matter of course, we want to satisfy the comfort of the residents, and we also want to make the cityscape where the buildings are lined up rich and enjoyable.
