Nishiogi Yamato Thatch

FUJIKI TAKAO ATELIER

Outline: Two houses stand across the courtyard from each other. The frame of both houses is made of reinforced concrete, and only the roof structure is made of wood. The slightly larger "House in the South" is a two-story, gabled, Yamato-roofed house with one basement floor and two floors above ground, with as large a floor as possible on each floor as a single room. The ground floor is open to the north and south, and the basement and second floor have living and exhibition spaces with different characteristics, also open to the north and south. "The house in the north was proposed as a "curved, single-flowing, Yamato-thatched" house with a slight twist in contrast to the simple image of the gabled house in the south, due to the strict height oblique line restriction.
