The house is built on a plot of about 11 tsubo (about 2.5 square meters) surrounded by greenhouses on the south side and houses on the other three sides. Openings in various directions and sizes weave their way through the gaps in the densely built-up area, creating continuity between the interior and exterior, and expanding the interior space. The volume of the building and the buffer zone of the entrance were designed with the intention of harmonizing with the surrounding environment.
