House of Spread By FORM | Kouichi Kimura


Form/Kouichi Kimura was asked to design this house in Japanese-style. the home owner had special request to have Buddhist altar and living room which is connected to a Japanese room. So, they planned to create a one-storied building that surrounds a courtyard and the flat building reflects aesthetic values of the Japanese. In order to get Japanese taste, the designer made the living room and Japanese room become dim. We will get the brightness of the courtyard only when you get to the dining room beyond the living room, because neither of them faced the courtyard.
In different, the dining room, bed rooms, and bath room are faced with the courtyard where looks like abstraction of the Japanese garden. It is featured by natural rocks and tower that rises vertically from the exterior wall. the relation between the courtyard and each room has been considered to determine the position.
