Production Technology: The architecture is a modern interpretation of traditional palace carpentry techniques. The linearity and rhythm of the deep eaves and the wooden lattice covering the exterior walls, combined with the painted walls, provide a sense of calm and security. Inside, the six layers of latticework form a three-dimensional structure that, in combination with the painted walls, expresses the Japanese aesthetic of beauty of use and the charm of the structural beauty of woodwork.

The fusion of traditional craftsmanship, which has been passed down for hundreds of years, with new modern craftsmanship and design is a difficult path to a new architectural tradition, but this building will be an architectural link in the succession of technology.

Inspiration: This construction, an evolution of tradition, that changes the stereotype of an anachronistic image of residence, and results in conversion of traditional structural skills and craftsmanship including traditional method. While enjoying the aging process of exterior and interior materials as time goes by, main residence, garden and roads in the surroundings creates a harmony in landscape and adds charms of architecture.
