The owner, a fashion researcher, built this house with the idea of a "final residence" in mind. In order to respond to the owner's desire for design, who is accustomed to designing things as a result of his work, original design was applied to every detail, from the entrance to the doorknobs. Since the house is a reconstruction of the owner's parents' house, the garden and the location of the building have not been altered to create an edge that recalls memories of the past. The result is a space designed as a "summary" of the owner's life.
