YASUSHI HORIBE ARCHITECT & ASSOCIATES
- Outline
- This is a study and storeroom for a private individual on a plot of 8 tsubo. As the building faces the main street, high sound insulation was required. The building is a reinforced concrete wall structure filled with concrete to maximize the volume of the site. The circular stairwell and library is a three-story atrium. The bookshelves are arranged according to the dimensions of the book collection so that the shelves can be moved as little as possible, and all the bookshelves are within reach.
