The three sides of the long, thin land (with a frontage of 6.16 m and depth of 26.6 m) are surrounded by the buildings in town, meaning that no natural scenery could have been gained simply by adding windows. We thus proposed a plan with a long wooden deck connecting the front and back of the land. Vertical lattices and opaque windows were installed along the deck and a large camphor tree towering up to the roof was planted in the courtyard in front of the entrance. These all add light, wind, and green to the home without you feeling the presence of the neighboring houses. We also chose a number of locally grown natural materials for the building to contribute to the local economy. Cedars grown in Kaga were used for the structural material walls of beams and columns as well as for the ceiling finish. Diatomaceous earth was used for the plastering on both the hall and the inside. An image of the woods is created by overlapping spaces toward the back, emphasized by the colonnades and the natural light coming in.
