Outline

This is the three-story small house where the narrow & long land leads the 300m straight road. We try to take this unique character to the inside. The steel made frames having 3.7m wide and 3m high are arranged and stacked up to 3 stories. These frames are exposed as interior finish with the timber board, suggesting the Japanese traditional structure called "Shinkabe". The one volume is separated into small rooms by invisible partitions derived from the frame lines. The house gives the dynamic experience in the urban context as well as holds the human scale we have been perceived.
