About The Stacked 住宅
「The Stacked」は、日本の岡山県倉敷市に完成した木造の住宅である。箱を積み重ねたような外観が、住宅地の中で建物に際立った佇まいを与えている。敷地は隣地との距離が非常に近いため、中庭を設けてリビングと一体化させることで、プライバシーを確保しながら開放的で明るい空間を実現した。内部では、開放的なリビングと和室が調和よく配置されている。高い気密性と優れた断熱性能、そして全館自動空調システムにより、四季を通じて快適な暮らしを支えている。

- Unique Properties
- This house is characterized by its exterior which resembles boxes stacked on top of each other. Since the house is adjacent to the neighboring property a courtyard was created to integrate the living space with the living room, creating an open and airy space while ensuring privacy. The interior of the house is designed to harmonize with the open living room and the Japanesestyle room to make the Japanese feel at home.

High airtightness and high insulation - Design Challenge
- The boundary with the building next door is very close.
Privacy was needed.By creating a courtyard it was possible to provide light and privacy. - Research
- We created a floor plan that allows family members to see each other at all times while providing privacy. We carefully surveyed the proposed site and studied the flow lines of people and the way light enters the surrounding area. Since temperatures change with the seasons in Japan we pursued an ecological design by improving airtightness and insulation.
- Inspiration
- The goal is to utilize the functionality of the planned site to create an attractive residential landscape not only in terms of liveability but also in terms of design. The distinctive form is constructed with an emphasis on balancing the shape of the planned site with the interior space and the unique exterior gives a distinctive accent to the residential area.
- Project Duration
- Completed in Kurashiki Okayama in 2021
- Operation Flow
- We tested many times to determine how high and deep the walls could be placed in relation to the street and neighboring buildings to maintain privacy in the living room and patio.
