A construction place is a place blessed with the environment that green located in the place from which it's 1 km away in the northeast is more abundant than Hankyu Shukugawa station. A row of trees of a pine and a cherry tree continues, and the Shukugawa park where it's here along a riverbed is a famous area during Hanshin as an eminent scenic area.
A client was spending a vacation by an overseas condominium, and a door and a hallway were the request which would like to do a little open environment in the house it's possible to be wished for and invite a guest where. 3.5 m of spinney in a slope place led to the west side in the hill which rose more than roadway surface for foundation, and more neighboring lands were land with about 3 m of difference of ups and downs. There was a pine tree which also becomes an age of the tree for hundreds of years in the site, and it was lofty so that a house might be covered up.
A pine made a plan start to utilize this pine tree from being said to be the lucky tree which shows longevity. The eyes were considered and the front door was also made the large opening which passes to 2 layers because there was an apartment on the east side around a road. A movie is enjoyed and a BBQ is enjoyed, and the west side combines a retaining wall and is to arrange a wall, use this wall and also provide a terrace for the center because it's steep sloping ground, and without worrying about the eyes from the neighborhood such as, I made private space established. A living room dining kitchen study room and free space on the 2nd floor are established so that a terrace may be circled. The respective space is connected by an ambiguous relation with the feature though it's united space. Wherever I am, it's possible to feel the family's existence, and it's a pleasant sense of distance for your family with I'm on good terms. The entrance and the study room were made a void over 2 beds and dynamic space was produced.
It was planned in order to wish for an external environment such as water and green ahead of the eyes which are a conductor, and we assumed that natural abundance can be felt in a daily life.
The water which is cheered to assume that a background is white by a branch of a tree and a leaf and runs from spaut swings a surface of the water and gives a movement. A beautiful flower is equipped with a cherry tree newly and carries a season. A pine tree would keep watching this house while also nestling close to the family now.
