House in Itsuura

Outline
This is a house for fishermen built on a slope near the sea. In order to make the best use of the land inherited from the ancestors as much as possible, a V-shaped building was constructed with wooden suspension and about 60 trees were newly planted. In order to resolve the difference in slope, the building is supported in three places by a concrete foundation raised directly on the ground + radial log bundle units.
