Unique Properties: It is a three-story wooden structure in a densely built up area of Tokyo.
Although the site is small and the distance from the neighboring land is only about 1m, light and privacy were required.
The translucent cladding on facade softens incoming light and blurs the visibility of both passerby's and inhabitants.
At night, the lighted facade become a large light to illuminate the streets.
Dimensions & Packaging: Site area:35m2
Building area:19m2
Total floor area 55m2
Main structure: timber frame
Number of stories:3
Tags: House, Minimal, Simple, Compact, Facade, Light, Double skin, Polycarbonate, Japan
Production Technology: The translucent cladding:
Polycarbonate is used as a weatherproof and semi-transparent material, and to enhance its strength, folded plates and flat sheets are attached with plastic bars.
Openings where it is necessary to block the view from the outside are covered with the translucent cladding, while emergency access and ventilation openings are exposed.
Inspiration: There is a traditional Japanese partition, the shoji, which is a way of ensuring light and privacy.
The shoji consists of a thin wooden frame covered with translucent paper, which softens the incoming light and blurs the interior.
Inspired by the shoji, the designer have created a modern light filter that is resistant to wind and rain and can also be used outside.
Project Duration: Location: Kikuicho, Tokyo, Japan
