House with the Piano Hall

Eiji Ueno＋Katsuhiko Akiyama／Oak Village

Outline: The pentagonal shape of the piano hall allows the sound of the piano to be reflected diffusely so that it can be heard from any position. In order to improve the performance of wooden construction, which is inferior in terms of soundproofing, and to construct the pentagonal shape with wood, the carpenters hand-carved the joints and joints of the frame and constructed it using traditional construction methods.
