深色的混凝土墙和上面的黑色原型房屋体量，半透明的斜屋顶，白色的高平屋顶和下面的银色盒子。这些完全不同的、不一致的材料和颜色组合在一起，形成了这个房子。
Dark concrete walls and a black archetypical house volume above it, a translucent lean-to roof, a white high flat roof and a silver box under it. Those totally different and inconsistent materials and colors are combined to form this house.
场地位于1930年左右开发的住宅区，在生驹山的山坡上向西倾斜，可以俯瞰大阪平原的城市区域。我们有利地观察到老房子和重建的房子的马赛克模式，讲述了每一个超过80年的历史。
The site is in a residential area developed around 1930, sloping to the west on a hillside of Mt. Ikoma, which overlooks the urban area of Osaka Plain. We observed favorably the mosaic pattern of old and rebuilt houses telling each history of over eighty years.
要找到使房子与周围环境相协调的方法并不容易，因为这个地方距离道路有3.5米高，所以房子看起来比实际尺寸要大。我们在设计过程中，一步一步地寻找适应周围环境的适当的建房方式。
It was not easy to find out the way for making the house coordinated to the surroundings as the site is 3.5m up from the road so that the house would look larger than the actual size. We proceeded with the design by making places step by step searching an appropriate way of building the house that adapt to surrounding environments.
首先，我们使用由小块月桂木制成的模板制作了具有粗糙纹理的混凝土墙，以与周围环境中的旧砖石墙和混凝土砖墙相匹配，并按照附近房屋的屋顶形式用黑色原型房屋结构覆盖这些墙。之后，生活空间是以改造室内空间的方式进行的。在混凝土墙和房屋后面的悬崖墙之间，为厨房和浴室等日常生活设施提供了空间，用半透明的倾斜屋顶和木制门窗覆盖。百叶窗帮助居民避免被人看到并控制他们的隐私。
First, we made concrete walls with rough texture by using formwork made by small split lauan to match with old masonry walls and concrete-block walls in surrounding environments, and covered those with a black archetypical house structure following the roof form of houses in the neighborhood. After that, living space is made in the way as renovating interior space. The space for facilities to support the daily life such as a kitchen and a bathroom is made in between the concrete walls and the cliff-retaining wall behind the house, covered with a translucent lean-to roof and wooden windows and doors. The Venetian window blinds help residents to avoid to be seen and control their privacy.
在路边，一个薄而现代的平顶，代表了一种新的生活方式，覆盖了由钢板制成的盒子，通常用于日本建筑工地的临时围墙，假装正在进行的建筑工地的气氛。由Akane Moriyama设计的透明彩色织物的重叠，使位于盒子和平顶之间的儿童房间变得有深度和美丽的层次。
On the road side, a thin, modern flat-roof, which represents a new life style covers the box made of steel plates commonly used for temporary enclosure at construction sites in Japan, pretending atmosphere of ongoing construction sites. The overlap of transparent colorful fabrics of the curtain designed by Akane Moriyama makes depth and beautiful gradation in a child’s room, which is situated between the box and the flat roof.
这些结果是创造了与 “之前 “和 “之后 “都有关的地方。在不同的时间轴相遇的空间中提供了生活场所，如 “混凝土墙 “和 “黑色的房子类型”，”混凝土墙 “和 “挡土墙”，以及 “白色平顶 “和 “钢板盒子”。
These resulted in making places that are related to both “before” and “ after”. Living places are provided in space where different time-axes meet as “concrete walls” and “ a black house-type,” “concrete walls” and “a retaining wall,” and “a white flat-roof” and “boxes of steel plates.”
从这所房子的存在方式来重新思考整个住宅，将建议我们重新发现所有元素和空间在该地区不同历史中的潜力和丰富性。
Rethinking the whole residential are from the way that this house exists would suggests us to rediscover potentials and richness of all elements and space among those with different histories in the area.
