House of Yabugaoka

The site explanation
This building exists in the growing town where an old house and a new house exist. There is a building in the location a little higher than a big street.
The road on the south side of the building is narrow and is in the location higher than a site. The others’ land on the north side is lower than a site conversely. I looked for the way to defend privacy against a problem in these sites and a look of the person who walks along a street

The explanation in a building
To utilize the difference in the height of the southern road and site, the space where the family gather on the 1st floor is made. The road side makes a parking lot and separates a building. The 1st floor of the building exists in the location lower than a road. There is a big window on the road side as a result, but the private space enclosed moderately is being produced.

The front door space opened widely connects with a back garden. There was a calculated window in the upper part in a front door, and the sight also thought I go through and gave a light sense to a building from outside. The living room where the family relaxes connects with the 2nd floor at the void space where the mutual sign can be felt each other. A void connects space and also also connects a wind and sunlight.

The 2nd floor of all except for a bedroom was made flexible space. Child’s playing space, study space, reading space and guest room can be chosen by a destination. The deck enclosed in a wooden louver is here to divide outside and the interior. These will be a buffering area to their eyes, and it’s made a moderate spatial separation like the 1st floor.
