About House in Toyonaka आवासगृहम्
तोयोनाका-नगरे स्थितं गृहम् जापानदेशस्य उत्तर-ओसाका-प्रदेशे सान्द्रे आवासीये क्षेत्रे विद्यमानं व्यक्तिगतम् आवासगृहम् अस्ति। एतत् स्थलं समीपे संकीर्णतया स्थापितैः गृहैः परिवृतम् अस्ति, दूरस्थं दृश्यं च नास्ति, अतः गोपनीयता एव मुख्या चिन्ता आसीत्। तस्मात् इदं गृहं विशालवातायनानि परिहरति, मार्गं प्रति च पिहितं तिष्ठति। काचमयं भूमितलम्, अर्धस्तरीयानि तलानि, गवाक्षाश्च दृष्टिरेखां अन्तर्गृहस्य प्रत्येकं भागं प्रति ईषत् प्रसरितुं ददति, येन आवृतत्वस्य भावः न्यूनीभवति। परिमितं दिवाप्रकाशम् अपि कालस्य गमनं स्पष्टतया अनुभवयति। समग्रं भूमितलक्षेत्रफलम् १०७.६२ वर्गमीटर् अस्ति।

Behind the Design

- 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.
