About Nestled in the Green 住宅
《绿意environ》——不,应为:《绿荫环抱之家》是一座位于日本广岛田尻的住宅。基地坐落于典型的日本住宅区内,北侧为低矮山峦,南侧面向濑户内海。该住宅建于一栋原欧式度假别墅的地块之上,原建筑被拆除,而庭园则被保留并精心养护。设计对住宅的布局位置与窗洞尺寸进行了细致研究,使庭园与山景得以从多个方向被观赏。开启的窗扇将树叶的沙沙声与鸟鸣引入室内。基地面积为713.24平方米。

- Unique Properties
- Wrapped by the surrounding nature, this house nestles closely within the environment in which it stands. Located in Tajiri-cho, Fukuyama, Japan, the neighboring buildings, apartments, and houses form this typical Japanese residential area. However, with small mountains stretching northward and the Seto Inland Sea to the south, one realizes this town is also surrounded by nature. Built on the plot of an former European-style vacation home, the house was demolished by the owner but the garden was tended to ever since. Like this town, the architecture creates a space wrapped delicately in nature.

- Design Challenge
- He thought about how he understood the environment, bringing nature inside and connecting it to the outside.
Then, spent a lot of time to make the inside space merge, blending in naturally like the space in nature. - Research
- Focusing on the concept of nestling the architecture within nature, He began thinking about the house and the garden from various perspectives and alongside the landscape architect, He developed the form of the house, the size and positioning of the windows over and over until reaching a singular, encompassing space and form.
- Inspiration
- To create a feeling of familiarity with nature, the position of the house was considered so that from inside, both the garden and mountains can be viewed from many directions. This meant that depending on the season, the shifting colours of the flowers and trees, the fluttering of birds could be enjoyed.
When they open the windows, the sound of swaying leaves and chirping birds flow inside. He hoped those things would become a normality, imagining a life experiencing nature with their five senses. - Project Duration
