2 Courts House in Tokyo, Japan by Keiji Ashizawa Design

Typical Tokyo urban condition of closely built surrounding. The 4 storey house resolves privacy and light by the idea of 2 cascading courtyards, which spills gradual light into the innermost volume of the house. Due to the differing light intensity from the 2 courtyards, each space also differs in character and function.
