House in Minamimachi 3 by Suppose Design Office
House in Minaminachi 3 is a residence for a couple with 2 children. It is standing at a place where an old shopping street and houses are still kept. The site area of the dwelling is only 55 sqm, and it has a square form. Also, houses at the area are sitting closely next each other, so the condition is quite difficult to make the residence open to outside keeping its private. The unique design of the house is a relationship between the building and its exterior elements. There are extra walls along the site, and they fully covered the dwelling that has only 29 sqm as building area. The house is standing with angle, not parallel to the exterior walls and site. Through the gap between the walls and the inside construction, sunlight is coming down well reflecting between the two structures.
