House in Fukawa

Outline: While it is not possible to open the building straightforwardly due to the heavy traffic on the road in front of it, the exterior walls are built in a way that suits the site, creating a volume like a large tree inside the space. The trunk of the tree is a stairwell, from which the rooms protrude like branches and leaves. The rooms have openings and the upper part becomes a terrace, and various relationships are created between the rooms, the space between the outer walls, and the outside.
