Villa in Saitama

Arii Irie Architects

Outline: The house is built on a flagpole lot with a slender pole of approximately 20 meters. The volume is built at a 45-degree angle to the axis of the site, and the first floor is a 4x4 square room that is continuous with the exterior. In winter, sunlight enters at a low angle through a gap between the houses, and in summer, the space becomes like a park under an azumaya, with bright vegetation on the side. The centripetal ceiling structure is painted white to soften its visual intensity and treat it like a relief that reflects light.
