About House in Toyonaka Dar Residenzjali

Id-Dar f'Toyonaka hija residenza privata f'distrett residenzjali dens fit-tramuntana ta' Osaka, il-Ġappun. Is-sit huwa mdawwar b'djar imgeżwra flimkien u m'għandu ebda veduta fil-bogħod, għalhekk il-privatezza kienet il-kwistjoni ewlenija. Id-dar għaldaqstant tevita twieqi kbar u tibqa' magħluqa lejn it-triq. Art tal-ħġieġ, artijiet f'livelli maqsuma u twieqi tas-saqaf iħallu l-linja tal-vista tgħaddi kemmxejn minn kull parti ta' ġewwa, u jnaqqsu s-sens ta' għeluq. Id-dawl tax-xemx limitat jagħmel ukoll il-mogħdija taż-żmien perċepibbli b'mod ċar. L-erja totali tal-art hija 107.62 metru kwadru.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Unique Properties: Located in a residential district in northern Osaka, this property is surrounded by closely packed houses and lacks any outstanding views. Due to the adjacent homes, maintaining privacy was of the utmost importance. The aim of the design was therefore to create a stimulating and beautiful space that nevertheless had no large windows and was closed to the outside world.
Dimensions & Packaging: Site Area：95.60 sqmt, Building Area：53.42 sqmt, Total Floor Area：107.62 sqmt, Max Height : 8.5m, Max Width : 8.4m, Max Depth : 9.5m
Design Challenge: A major issue was how to obtain a space that does not give a feeling of blockage while limiting the openings. With the glass floor, split-level floor, and skylights, it was possible to reduce the feeling of blockage by allowing the line of sight to slightly pass at each part of the house.
Inspiration: We believe small and enclosed space can be also comfortable. Even small gap to see outside can make small space comfortable. This kind of philosophy is maybe inspired by the traditional Japanese Architecture, especially tea ceremony room. Privacy is very important factor in this contemporary society so that this kind of philosophy should be considered again, we believe.
Project Duration: The project started in May 2016 and finished in June 2018 in Osaka, Japan.
Operation Flow: The limited openings contribute to privacy in dense residential areas. At the same time, limited sunlight makes the change of time sensitively perceived.
