这个房子位于东京的一个住宅区，是为一对已婚夫妇和他们的两个孩子以及他们的两辆车设计的。

This house is located in a residential area in Tokyo and designed for a married couple with 2 children and their 2 cars.

虽然这个住宅区位于密集的市中心，但大多数居民都有一个带百叶窗的内置汽车车库。

由于该地区的房屋建在一个小而狭窄的地块上，典型的内置车库的房屋，其居住空间在车库后面，照明和通风条件不足。

Though this residential area is located in dense city center, most of the residents have a built-in car garage with a shutter.

Since houses in this area built in a small and narrow plot, the typical house with built-in garage has their living space back of the garage where lighting and ventilation condition is inadequate.

这个项目的目的是重新定义这个地区重复建造的类型，以显示改善居住条件的可能性。

这个房子在路边有一个2层楼高的大厅，背面是3层楼高的居住空间。

This project aimed to redefine the typology, which is repeatedly built in this area, to show possibility to improve living condition.

This house has a hall of 2 stories height on the roadside and 3 stories living space on the backside.

大厅有一个宽大的开口，可打开的顶灯，一个大的高位灯和一个双推拉窗。这个大厅主要用作车库，但它也改善了居住空间的照明和通风条件，并为他们提供了广阔的空间。更重要的是，大厅作为生活空间和街道之间的缓冲区。

The hall has a wide opening, openable top lights, a large highside light and a double sliding window. This hall is mainly used as a garage, but it also improve lighting and ventilation condition of the living space and provides expanse of space to them. What is more, the hall works as a buffer zone between the living space and the street.

通过设计裸露的木梁天花板和类似瓷砖的泥土地板，以及在大厅使用吊灯，试图让人觉得大厅是居住空间的一部分。

By designing the ceiling with exposed wood beams and the dirt floor with tile-like joint, and by using chandelier-like pendant light in the hall, it is tried to be perceived the hall as a part of the living space.

在这个项目中，一个通常被认为是小房子的负面元素的车库被扩大并设计成一个大厅，以改善居住条件。并试图扩大居民在这一地区的生活方式的可能性。

事实上，客户在大厅里展示了画作，它也已经开始作为一个画廊使用。

A garage, which is usually considered as a negative element in a small house, is enlarged and designed as a hall to improve the living condition in this project. And it is tried to expand the possibilities of how the residents live in this area.

In fact, the client displayed paintings in the hall and it has also started to work as a gallery.
