Fuwaku Residential

The building is a modern interpretation of traditional techniques and craftsmanship. The deep eaves of the sloping roof and the linear impression of the wooden latticework, combined with the painted walls, create a peaceful exterior atmosphere. The interior features a six-layered coffered ceiling composed of horizontal and vertical lines, and the beauty of the traditional painted walls and unique structural beauty expresses a Japanese sense of aesthetics and outstanding design.

In Japan, traditional techniques that have been passed down from generation to generation are on the decline, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to maintain the skills of traditional craftsmen. As a temple carpenter and designer, he has participated in numerous architectural awards to convey the new possibilities of traditional techniques to young designers and builders by creating "attractive structural beauty" and "beauty of use" architecture based on the evolution of traditional techniques from the inheritance of traditional techniques.

Mochizuki Corporation

We pursue the beauty of the structure and the beauty of use, and respond to the needs of our clients by building houses that are not standardized products, but rather specialize in non-standardized products. We break down the stereotypes of the anachronistic image of the miya carpenter's house, and transform our own traditional techniques and technologies into a stylish design [Evolution of Tradition], which is a one-of-a-kind architecture that combines design and construction.
