Wind and Fire with Farmer's House

Takeshi Ikeuchi／studio colife3

Outline: This is a house for a young rice farmer, one of the few in the area. In order to take in the prevailing summer breeze blowing from east to west, the building is made into a long and narrow volume with large openings on the east and west sides. Through the openings on the east side of the building, the interior and exterior farm spaces are connected. The east side of the site is also used as a storage area for tractors and other equipment.
