该场地位于兵库县西宫市的一个安静的住宅区内。客户希望有一个强大的混凝土框架作为空间的象征，同时希望房子能够适应孩子的成长和生活方式的变化。钢筋混凝土墙体结构被用于周边的主墙，而一室一厅的室内空间则由中庭连接。结构墙被尽可能地减少，配件被用作私人房间之间的隔断墙。这个房子的主题是恒定和可变性、不便和自由。

The site is located in a quiet residential area in Nishinomiya City, Hyogo Prefecture. The client wanted a strong framework of concrete as a symbol of space, and at the same time, a house that could accommodate the growth of children and changes in lifestyle. The reinforced concrete wall structure is used for the main walls on the perimeter, while the one-room indoor space is connected by an atrium. The structural walls are reduced as much as possible, and fittings are used as partition walls between the private rooms. The themes of this house are constancy and variability, inconvenience, and freedom.

我们的目标不是用混凝土外墙严密保护隐私的封闭式庭院住宅，而是创造一个与外部环境（如城镇和花园）相连的生活空间。为此，在保留结构上必要的墙体的同时，尽可能地在外墙上设置大的开口。这些排列有序的方形开口定义了与外部的关系，这取决于它们是否有玻璃，以及它们是否被百叶窗或窗帘打开或关闭。此外，这些开口用混凝土块堵住，并调整到必要的尺寸，以适应当前家庭状况和生活方式所需的室内空间。

Rather than a closed courtyard house with concrete exterior walls that tightly protect privacy, we aimed to create a living space that is connected to the external environment, such as the town and the garden. To this end, large openings were placed as much as possible on the exterior walls, while retaining the structurally necessary walls. The square openings, arranged in an ordered sequence, define the relationship with the exterior, depending on whether they are glazed or not, and whether they are opened or closed by shutters or curtains. In addition, the openings were blocked with concrete blocks and adjusted to the necessary size to accommodate the indoor space required by the current family situation and lifestyle.

弯曲的楼梯和不同位置的大窗户为一室一厅的室内空间创造了三维的深度。客厅周围的大开口提供了一种开放的感觉，但有时也需要阻挡视线。窗帘的长度是平时的两倍多，通过调整织物的粗细和密度，可以灵活控制透明度。窗帘在控制视线的同时，切断了外部景观和邻近房间的片段，在人口稠密的住宅区创造了一个开放的空间，同时保持了隐私。

The curved staircase and large windows in various locations create a three-dimensional depth to the one-room interior space. The large openings surrounding the living room provide a sense of openness, but sometimes it is necessary to block the line of sight. The curtains, which are more than twice as long as usual, provide flexibility in controlling transparency by adjusting the coarseness and density of the fabric. The curtains control the line of sight while cutting off fragments of the exterior landscape and neighboring rooms, creating an open space while maintaining privacy in a densely populated residential area.

一楼的停车场、入口和楼梯以及二楼的起居室/餐厅是生活空间，但它们也是展示客户收藏品的空间，包括古董车和绘画。入口处作为铭牌的书法雕塑是介绍空间的一个元素。整个房子的水平展示架上装饰着客户爱好的人物，为靠近窗户的生活空间带来色彩。三楼被规划为一个灵活的空间，用于成长中的孩子的房间和书房。这些独立的空间，半透明的聚碳酸酯活动隔墙，是为了适应和更新未来家庭不断变化的需求而设计的。

The parking lot, entrance, and staircase on the first floor and the living/dining room on the second floor are living spaces, but they also serve as spaces for exhibiting the client’s collections, including vintage cars and paintings. The calligraphic sculpture at the entrance as a nameplate is an element of introduction to the space. The horizontal display shelves throughout the house are decorated with figures from the client’s hobbies, bringing color to the living space near the windows. The third floor was planned as a flexible space for the growing children’s rooms and a study. The individual spaces, translucent polycarbonate movable partition walls, are designed to accommodate and update the changing needs of the family in the future.

填充空间的材料的质地，如裸露的混凝土、砌块、木材、石头和织物，都是在仔细考虑了它们在每个地方的质地平衡后规划的。时间的流逝印在材料的表面，通过积累家庭在这个空间的时间，希望房子能成为一个记忆的容器，带来对居住地的长久依恋感。

The textures of the materials that fill the space, such as exposed concrete, blocks, wood, stone, and fabric, were planned after carefully considering the balance of their textures in each location. The passage of time is imprinted on the surface of the materials, and by accumulating the family’s time in the space, it is hoped that the house will serve as a memory vessel that will bring about a long-lasting sense of attachment to its residence.
