Overlapped with each other by making them look (the turning space), but it is rough external space to erosion. I think you can be reborn as a new light well. In other words, was planned as a “light tunnel” was allowed to penetrate well overturn the configuration of the light across the slab, a plurality of walls.

They became a residential proposal with potential new in densely “open while closing.”  Image Courtesy © Koichi Torimura A residence we designed has opened and closed space to be suitable for an owner’s multiple lifestyles. Since it is located in a high-density residential area, it is possible that the house might be surrounded by other houses some day, except for a 2 meter-wide corridor that connects to a public road. For those reasons, we needed to take such a situation into consideration, like securing a vehicle turning space. The owner of the house also wanted a big living room that has no interrupter such as pillars in the room to welcome guests to the home.

The other idea is that outside space comes into the house because an entrance is set in the center of the house. The outside space brings light into the living room as a light corridor. In other words, it is designed as a horizontal light court that penetrates the several walls.

The project at the high-density residential area opens up a new possibility for the living in the opened and closed space.
