About House in Niigata 住宅建築
新潟の住宅は、古くから建物が密集する住宅地に建つ、4人家族のための個人住宅である。外壁にはグレーに淡く着色した木材を用い、周囲の街並みと調和させている。平面計画は二つの庭を中心に構成されている。1階にはコンクリート壁で囲まれた中庭を、2階には木製格子で縁取られた屋上テラスを配置した。すべての部屋がこの二つの庭に面しているため、カーテンなどの目隠しを必要としない。構造は伝統的な木造軸組構法を採用している。

- Unique Properties
- The planned site is located in an old residential area where many houses are densely lined up.
It is a private house where a family of four lives.
For the outer wall, the wooden outer wall material was lightly colored in gray to harmonize with the cityscape.
The color that seems to have changed over time fits into the old townscape.
The composition of the house made two gardens.
The garden creates a private space. - Dimensions & Packaging
- Site area 158.60m2
Floor area 104.34m2 - Tags
- Houses, Houses with courtyards, Gardens, Cityscapes
- Production Technology
- Traditional wooden construction method
- Design Challenge
- Many of the old residential areas are densely populated.
The impact of architecture on the cityscape is great.
I created a good cityscape and thought of a house where you can feel nature. - Research
- We built a courtyard and a roof terrace, and thought about balancing the contradictions of openness and privacy.
We have verified how to take in light and wind many times.
Therefore, we have realized openness and a private space. - Inspiration
- Many houses are lined up in old residential areas in urban areas.
The surrounding houses are all built at the same time.
The exterior is made of similar industrial material.
In an old residential area, I wanted to change the uniform cityscape while cooperating with the cityscape.
Even in a residential area in an urban area, I thought of a house that feels nature. - Project Duration
- Construction started in 2017 in Niigata, Japan. Completed in 2018.
- Operation Flow
- On the first floor, we created a courtyard surrounded by a concrete wall.
On the second floor, we made a roof terrace and surrounded it with a wooden lattice and an outer wall.
All the rooms have been placed in these two gardens.
The garden creates a private space.
There is no need for blindfolds such as curtains.
The connection with the outside will be strengthened positively.
I thought that feeling nature in everyday life was an open house.
