This is a house for a couple who love to cook. They plan to open a café in the future, so they needed a place to enjoy meals inside and outside the house. The house is made up of several gable-roofed volumes that retain the appearance of a small village that was once formed by several private houses that stood on the site. The gable roofs on each volume gently divide the space, but when the fittings are opened, the space, including the outside, becomes one connected space.
