About Nestled in the Green Kay

Kache nan Vèdi a se yon kay ki sitiye nan Tajiri, Hiroshima, Japon. Sit la chita nan yon zòn rezidansyèl tipik Japonè, avèk ti mòn yo nan nò a ak Lanmè Enteryè Seto a nan sid la. Kay la te bati sou tè kote te gen yon ansyen kay vakans nan style Ewopeyen, ki te demoli pandan yo te kenbe ak antreteni jaden an. Yo te etidye pozisyon kay la ansanm ak gwosè fenèt yo pou moun ka wè jaden an ak mòn yo nan anpil direksyon diferan. Fenèt louvri yo pèmèt bri fèy yo ak zwazo yo antre nan kay la. Sit la gen yon sifas total 713.24 mèt kare.

Unique Properties
Wrapped by the surrounding nature, this house nestles closely within the environment in which it stands. Located in Tajiri-cho, Fukuyama, Japan, the neighboring buildings, apartments, and houses form this typical Japanese residential area. However, with small mountains stretching northward and the Seto Inland Sea to the south, one realizes this town is also surrounded by nature. Built on the plot of an former European-style vacation home, the house was demolished by the owner but the garden was tended to ever since. Like this town, the architecture creates a space wrapped delicately in nature.

Design Challenge
He thought about how he understood the environment, bringing nature inside and connecting it to the outside.
Then, spent a lot of time to make the inside space merge, blending in naturally like the space in nature.
Research
Focusing on the concept of nestling the architecture within nature, He began thinking about the house and the garden from various perspectives and alongside the landscape architect, He developed the form of the house, the size and positioning of the windows over and over until reaching a singular, encompassing space and form.
Inspiration
To create a feeling of familiarity with nature, the position of the house was considered so that from inside, both the garden and mountains can be viewed from many directions. This meant that depending on the season, the shifting colours of the flowers and trees, the fluttering of birds could be enjoyed.

When they open the windows, the sound of swaying leaves and chirping birds flow inside. He hoped those things would become a normality, imagining a life experiencing nature with their five senses.
