Takasugi-an

Outline
The maximum height of the house is approximately 10 m. The two 8-meter-high chestnut pillars are reinforced with concrete, and a wooden panel construction method is used for the structure. The roof is made of hand-bent corrugated copper plates. Fujimori, who does not separate design and construction, constructed the house with his childhood friends in the local community.
