About Timeless نیشتەجێگە

لە ناوەوە، خانووەکە بە دوو حەوشە دیاری دەکرێت، یەکێکیان گەورە و ئەوی دیکەیان بچووکە، کە بە شێوەیەکی هاوتەریب ڕێکخراون. حەوشەی سەرەکی لە لایەنی باشوورەوەیە و بە دارستانێکی بامبوو تایبەتمەندە کە سەرنجی ڕادەکێشێت کاتێک مرۆڤ هەنگاو دەنێتە ناو شوێنی چوونەژوورەوەکە. حەوشەیەکی بچووکتری شێوەی شەقاوی لە لایەنی باکوورەوە هەروەها بە چاندنەکان خاڵ خاڵ کراوە و وەک بیرێکی ڕووناکی کار دەکات، هۆڵی نیشتەجێبوونی نهۆمی یەکەم و شوێنی چوونەژوورەوە هەروەها هۆڵی نیشتەجێبوونی دووەمی نهۆمی سەرەوە پڕ دەکاتەوە لە ڕووناکیێکی خۆش و بڵاوبووەوە.

Unique Properties: Inside, the house is defined by two courtyards, one large and the other small, that are arranged in parallel. The main courtyard is on the south side and features a bamboo grove that draws the eye when one steps into the entryway. A smaller slit-shaped courtyard on the north side is also dotted with plantings and serves as a lightwell, filling the first-floor living room and entryway as well as a second living room upstairs with pleasant, diffuse light.

Inspiration: This house in a quiet residential neighborhood of central Tokyo was built for a couple who had long lived on the property but wanted to rebuild as they entered a new phase of life. The simple exterior design comprised of two massive volumes piled on top of each other takes advantage of the corner lot, with a façade of exposed concrete imprinted with cedar formwork. Outward-facing windows are limited to horizontal slits to preserve privacy and increase security.
