在这个房子里–为一个四口之家设计的住宅–要求家里的每个人都能感受到彼此的存在，无论他们在房子里的什么位置。设计是基于场地位于山顶的固定地形，并期望将来不会对周围安静的住宅区有任何大的改变。 场地上有一栋老化的主屋和一栋出租楼；我们决定用相同的构图来重建这两栋房子。
At this house – a residence designed for a family of four – it was requested that everyone in the family should be able to feel the presence of each other regardless of where they are in the house. The design is based on the fixed topography of the site at the top of a hill, and the expectation that there will not be any big changes to the quiet residential area of the surrounding in the future. On the site there was an aging main house and a rental building; we decided to rebuild both houses using the same composition.
坡屋顶的体量是参照原来的布局和形式来布置的，以便保留花园里的柿子树，并尽可能地保留小镇的记忆。 对于室内，必须考虑如何传达家族存在的迹象，并设计出能够同时适应其生活方式和流通的变化的房间。我们能够通过排列柱子来创造一个良好的视角，如果需要的话，可以增加更多的分层，朝向东南方向，在那里向天空的方向开放。我们还在二楼放置了一个大窗户，为小客厅创造了一个良好的视野，这也是一个半户外的区域，形成了一个休闲和放松的地方，与周围的环境联系起来。
The volumes of the gable roofs were placed with reference to the original layout and form, in order to keep the persimmon tree in the garden and to preserve the memories of the town as much as possible. With the interior, it was essential to consider the ways to convey the signs of the family’s presence, and to design rooms that can accommodate changes in their lifestyles and in the circulation at the same time. We were able to create a good viewpoint by lining up columns, and if it is needed, adding more split-levels, towards the southeast where it opens to the direction of the sky. We also placed a large window on the second floor creating a good view for the small living room, which is also a semi-outdoor area, resulting in a casual and relaxed place that connects with the surroundings.
遵循城镇景观的外部和遵循地形的内部的柱子和梁之间的竞争，在空间中产生了波动和深度。两者和其他各种元素的共鸣，产生了一种复调。这是一个像树屋一样在房间里一圈一圈移动的生活方式的房子；室内有很多柱子，地板散落在空间之间。
The competition between the exterior that follows the townscape, and the columns and beams in the interior following the topography, produce a fluctuation and depth in the space. The resonation of the two and various other elements, result in a polyphony. It is a house where a lifestyle is led by moving round and round in the rooms like a tree house; the interior bristles with columns and floors are scattered in between the spaces.
