This two-family house is the designer's own residence adjacent to a children's park in Yanaka, a downtown area of Tokyo. The residence is designed to look like a public facility, with the living space on the second floor and above, and the entrance dirt floor open to create interaction with the local community. The sweeping windows on the park side are at a height that allows even children to come and go between inside and outside.
