The
plan of a house with a small beauty shop on the first floor. A house
for a family of four: the young couple running the shop, their 3
year-old girl, and their newborn.The site, surrounded by
neighboring houses in 3 directions, is in a quiet residential area. Most
houses in the area have only 2 stories and one is able to see the
mountains far away.

However,
the neighboring houses and apartments stand close to the site with
their windows opening on to it. So I began to consider how to create an
open space in such a tightly enclosed site. The building has a
gable-house-shape with a continuous exterior space from the 1st to the
3rd floor under a large inclined roof. 5 large openings in the inclined
roof bring sufficient natural light and air, as well as scenery, into
the building.

The
windows, as “voids,” lacking sashes, have a totally different scale
from the windows of the neighboring houses. That’s why there is a
wondrous scale around the area as if the model had been enlarged.When
you’re walking in a forest in the mountains, you feel as though you’re
being gently embraced though you’re not actually inside anything.

Along
the path, where the wind’s breezes encircle the trees’ leaves above,
where one can hear the murmur of the wind in the trees, the sounds of
the birds singing, and the footsteps of creatures in the hush, there is,
I think, an interior-like sense of place, a state that is wholly
distinct from urban spaces or open skies.

Or
else, from amongst a thicket, finding a view of the city at the foot of
the mountain, or the blue sky streaming through the leaves and so one
encounters many such “exteriors” along the way.

Can
we create a place for such experiences in a crowded residential
area? One encounters “outside” at various points as you walk upstairs
since the semi-exterior spaces are connected and gently covered with a
large luminous roof.I hope to create a diversity of “exteriors”
with the various angles and heights of the site, appropriately hiding
away the views from the neighboring sites, as well as a sense of the
neighboring houses’ existence. © Kentaro Kurihara © Kentaro Kurihara © Kentaro Kurihara
