The mado no ie ("window house") prefabricated house was developed from the concept of building houses around people's lifestyles. A key element in this example of a house designed around?and designed to enrich?the owners' lives is the windows. Windows are initially links between the inside and outside of the home, apertures that bring light in. But ultimately, windows frame views of the world shared among family members, and they nurture growing minds that enjoy these shared perspectives. In Japan, signs of seasonal changes are appreciated as scenery framed by windows. Windows in the "window house" can be freely positioned to suit owners' aesthetic preferences, which reflects the developers' regard for people's freedom in building these links with the outside world. And just as owners can choose where to let light in, square cutouts in internal walls are the simplest way to frame scenes of families linked by communication.
