TUBO-SUBAKO

Outline
The bedroom, 4m in diameter, is located in the center of the 6x6x6m volume. The walls are raised so that they bulge out at eye level, and the space above the head is gradually narrowed to form a vase-shaped space. Other necessary rooms are developed around the vase in a skipping fashion, leading to the dining room and kitchen on the top floor. The floor of the bedroom is used as a thermal storage floor, and the top of the vase is used as a natural gravity ventilation system to maintain a comfortable indoor environment.
