The Design

About Timeless Guri

Gudaha, gurigu waxaa qeexaya laba barxadood, mid weyn iyo mid yar, oo si isbarbar socda ah loo dhigay. Barxadda ugu weyn waxay ku taal dhinaca koonfureed waxaana lagu dhex beertay dhir bambu ah oo indhaha soo jiidata marka qof madaarka soo galo. Barxad yar oo qaabkeeda daloollaysan oo ku taal dhinaca woqooyi ayaa sidoo kale dhir lagu dhex beeray, waxayna u adeegaysaa god iftiin, iyada oo iftiin macaan oo kala firidhsan ka buuxinaysa qolka fadhiga dabaqa hore iyo madaarka, iyo sidoo kale qolka fadhiga labaad ee dabaqa sare.

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.
